Comment by rachelellen:
Personal tastes differ but to me it looks like the rose is just there because you wanted something in the picture. Also, it's a quibble, but it looks to me like the light source was actually moving around in the picture; "painting with light" is a technique where you have a darkened subject and you use a movable light (like a flashlight or laser pointer) to illuminate it, as if you were "painting" the light onto the subject. You're not alone; I've not seen many photos in this challenge that meet the technical description.

This is a really good idea. I like the dead rose and the way the bad and good are divided. You should have watched the news paper on the back of the couch but it gives a good idea that the image is still one. Looks good, I would give you a 9 out of 10. I really like the way you think.

The idea is good, but I do regret that you did not put more time for post treatment. The sepia color on the wase, the color on the paper...
