cool DoF field and perspective, i like how the complementary colors are only part of the image and not the entire emphasis of the image, i hope this does well

This is a very nice photo, but it so crisp that I can actually see very claerly that the rose is artificial. Was that really your intention?

Very nice execution, and the DOF is very effective. Unfortunately the sharp focus shows that those are silk roses. :)

I would have tried to blur it, so that you cannot see that it's fake. Nice anyway.

Would like to have seen more DOF. The blurred objects distract from the rest of the photo for me. But then again, I'm easily distracted. :)
