Duotone Roseby

I'm not really sure if this is considered duotone or not. I'm not educated in that area enough to decide. I does not LOOK to me like a duotone. It looks like a full color image that consists of 2 colors. Seems to be the same thing, but I don't think it is.
Oh well, setting that aside, I think the image itself is great. I don't see any true black, when you lighten up the background, it's actually a really dark redish color. I tried this shot in black and white and really like it also.
your focus and clarity are what make this shot great. You show us some really neat detail in the petals of the rose. it is a perfect rose, no flaws, althought I don't mind seeing flaws either.
The angle and framing/cropping are good. I like how the one triangular petal sticks out into the shot. Very visually appealing this way.
I dont really have any suggestions for improvement on the shot, unless it's not duotone, then there is the obvious one. However, still good.
