This is one of the best you've done so far--excellent work! And FWIW, it probably won't be the last time you get roses from boys you barely know. :)

Soft and pretty. Its sounds like a wonderful surprise you received. The b/w mid seems a touch flat to me, but thats just me. Sill a very wonderful image.

Very pretty. I like the slightly turned up smile as you smell the rose.

This is really good. Love the expression and the selective desat. Roses are roses...be thankful someone thought enough of you to get them for you.

Nice one Kari. I really like the composition on this one. As always you've got fantastic tonal range and the b&w/partial desat really brings it out. And you've got an admirer sending you roses...that's pretty cool :)
