David hel;lo and again a very good photo of roses.
Honest word? When we drink champagne all the time we get this urge for an normal beer. Meaning and do not get me wrong: change the subject David or you will be nicked as 'David the Rose'
Your photo here in all? Great

Hi David,
Great job of layering the background image; it's almost invisible. The colors are wonderful with shadows matching the outer petals. Excellent. :)

David, I spent an hour at the Rose gardens on Saturday taking photos - and thought of you. I may post one tonight. . .
I do like how you isolate the rose from the BG and do your special frame. This is very colourful and sharp - it's another wonderful beauty,

Hello again !

Love the detailed notes you are always adding. Accurate and extensive. I should try your technique one of these days (^_^).
Flowers are not my cup of tea. I find them pretty difficult to capture outdoors as the wind is often making them move.

Hats off to you PP talents !
Sincerely,
Robert

Hi David,
another great close up of a rose, wonderful quality like all the others. What sets this apart is the interesting frame work you did, with the other flowers in the BG of the frame.. one would think it would be overpowering... but it works very well.
