EM, great lighting, I noticed you cropped off the bottom, which I have done on different photos and told I shouldn't do that. I like the crop very much on this, so I think it should be in the eye of the beholder, what do you think, thanks Bob

Sometimes cropping the bottom of the picture will lead the eyes to the more important features you wish to show without unwanted distractions. The top petals of this Rose is what I was featuring, not leaves or stems hence I have you focusing on exactly what I wanted you to focus on.

It's just practice Bob and learning by the mistakes you make along the way.
