The sharpness of the central blossom is quite nice. It captures a lot of good detail and creates good foreground interest. The depth of field applied to the overall picture works and help create three dimensional space.

The background color is a little distracting. Perhaps a slightly darker shade of red would help.

The border is a little thick and detracts from the image. The rose hip on the right side is kind of "stuck" into the frame. It would be nice to have a bit of separation.

While there are many roses shown in this challenge this one takes a unique approach with the dried blossoms.

Nice bold colors in this shot. Composition is a little lacking. There isn't anything on the right side to help balance the red object. (What is it by the way?). As such the object drags the eye to the left part of the frame.

The bold contrast is a good idea but the picture does seem to be a bit dark.

Interesting approach to the challenge. The abstract nature of the object creates visual appeal.

Interesting composition. I like the lines of the leaves. They take your eye around the picture nicely. The central group of blossoms anchors the shot nicely and creates nice foreground interest.

The shot could be a bit sharper. If a tripod wasn't used I'd recommend one. The colors seem a little bit oversaturated.

This certainly meets the challenge. Perhaps not the most creative idea but its fresh enough to work.

I could have sworn I voted on this one. Apparently I didn't. It met the challenge well and it was cool to look at. Of course it didn't hurt that you shot it well too...

Congrats on the ribbon!

From the challenge: Title your image with your chosen acronym, and let your image explain what the letters represent!

As such you shouldn't put in your title what the letters mean. Thats what the picture was supposed to do.
