Good work processing this. I feel like I could reach right into the monitor and touch the rose on the right.

this is a technically good shot, that i could see in a calendar, but it doesnt keep my interest. (7)

nice lighting on the rose. I would have bent the flower in the lower left so that it was out of the frame. I tends to draw your eye. Anyway, the lighting is very nice--it give nice detail to the flower.

I'm not a huge fan of floral shots, so one really has to be excellent to appeal to me. Great job here, lots of fine veins showing in the petals.

This is very red. Almost TOO red. I like the detail in the flower petals.

Harsh editing here. The reds are over saturated in my opinion. I do like the composition / perspective.

Though beautiful flowers, the color is just too oversaturated for my taste.

the flower behind to the right is a little to "droopy"...should have re-arranged that...colors are brilliant, really like the tones otherwise

An extremely well framed picture meant to capture a wonderful sense of realism with the lighting, but overdoes it a little too much in the Color Saturation. A great picture.
I just wish I will seeing a little more natural color out of the roses.
