I like how you have the beads of water running off of the flower. I also like how the background is all black. Nice Work

This is a strking photo full of a lot of detail, textures and emotion. I wonder who looks out this window every day, and what do they see? The aged wood around it has a story of its own. Your black and white conversion is beautifully done and you have very minimal sharpening contrast around the branches. If you were going for an aged weathered look by using the ISO 400, then you did well. I might like to see it done in iso100 too as a crisper shot. The only other thing that my eye is drawn to is the branch appearing to touch the peak of the roof. A slighty different angle might have given a little more space there and added depth between the two.

I really like this shot. I rated it high during the competition. Keep up the good work.

Lovely rose. Very nicely taken shot. I really like the lighting best with the droplets along the edge all light up. (DIdn't I see this rose, plus another, in the other challenge this week? Not a problem, just asking, remembering...) 9 Swash

I feel like there is too much empty space at the top. It could have been cropped down a little bit further. Other than that it's a good photo.

nice shot... perfect lighting and great composition... the focus could be a little sharper though... plus I am not a fan of the wide border, but thats just my personal opinion.. I am sure others will like it (7)

Comment by Lustre:
You've chosen an interesting composition and I kind of like it. Personally I might have tried to light the centre of the rose a little more, but it does have a very moody effect as it is. My biggest complaint is what looks like a blurred leaf at the top left of the rose - I'd probably erase that if printing the photo. Generally though it's a very good photo.

Very cliche. I like how it fades from view. It's almost too close to the edges of the frame and I don't like the bright reflections on the right edge of the petal. Very beautiful tho. 9
