I thought of doing this idea, so you get extra points for that ;) I like the vertical composition, the road actually makes a neat background. I wonder though if turning it more towards the long part of the road and filling up the rest of the background with road would have simplified it, rather than having that small amount of grass in the corner.

Very nice photograph of a rose. I can see the road. Even though these 2 things might not normally be seen together I really like the contrast of textures in this photograph.

A flower on the road? It the flower shot was not so good, I would give you a four. you are taking this a little to literally. It could have been beside the road. Still it is not a scale model so 8

This is a beautiful rose... The composition and everything about this photo is quite nice! I suppose this rose is photographed on the road... The surface looks like asphalt so I guess this shot is qualified for the 'on the road' challenge. I must admit that I don't understand the link between this photo and the challenge topic. I think that this rose could have been photographed under this lighting and in this particular composition on just about any surface....

Not another picture of a flower up close. Every contest seems to have pics of flowers up close, they are so boring!

A rose 'On the Road' A great idea. Sharp detail, strong color contrasts, I like it.
