From the Critique Club
This is technically an excellent shot. The focus is spot on and the DOF is a touch shallow for my taste but I kind of like it in this instance. The lighting on the rose is excellent. It brings out every fold and crevice.
IMHO this shot suffers from the B/W treatment. I LOVE color and think that in this shot it can only help. As is, with the B/W treatment it doesn't hold my attention. I do think that it helps to disguise the reflection in the fork.
Oh and this being a studio type shot, I would have rotated the rose so the defect in the petal at top would not be visible.
So in my opinion, a great shot that would only benefit from some color!

| Interesting contrast between the shiny silver and the matte rose. I'd crop in from the left - the out of focus stuff doesnt; add anything to the picture and is distracting. Watch the refelctions in the silver - next time hold up a solid color paper close enough to fill the "mirror" of the object. |

| I liked the idea of this literalism but thought it would have portrayed that better if the rose was actually between 2 thorns. The silver from the fork with it's reflection is kind of distracting. |
