These are quite similar to the set I shot a year ago, but I did one learn one new trick that I thought I would pass along. When cropping in close, you can sometimes get a better frame if you rotate the crop frame after you have set the aspect ratio. It may seem obvious, but it never occurred to me before.

Thanks for looking. C&C always welcome.

Cheers,

    First one is my favorite. The light is perfect, and there is so much detail.

    Richard -

    #3 is my favorite - beautiful crop, stunning colors/contrast.

    #4 is a very dramatic BW conversion - just love it. I can almost feel the texture in that picture.
    Great shots - not "just another rose".clap.gif
