This is so sweet so natural and I love the softness of the orange yellow petals overlapping and cupping each other in sheer beauty. It seems to fade away towards the bottom below the water droplets, but feel the bright green background does take away some of its beauty.... My suggestion is that I like to see this cropped just below the water droplets without the green and feel it would be much improved.

GOOD TRY

THANK YOU for entering this lovely FRAGRANT FLORAL image

Ah, a non-square rose. And a beautiful one at that! Love the colors and that delicious DOF.

This is incredibly beautiful. A square crop might be "more sherpet," but who am I to complain about this picture? I can't. 8

so delicate... A touch of noise reduction would have improved the image yet.

This composition catches my eye. :)
Some may or may not comment on the grain, but I say it works for this image.

This is very pretty and I like how the colors and pp give that soft mood.

I really, really like the orange and pinks together (so Shez!) and the water drops set it off even better. I really don't like the green at all. Perhaps blue would have been a better compliment? Or perhaps a Sherpet Signature Square crop?

I can't decide whether the noise adds to it or detracts from it.
