I received some roses from my boyfriend yesterday. Here is a photo I took of them. I would like to get some feedback of it.

How nice of your boyfriend to do that for you. Wow 3200 iso and f/1.7 but 1/25 shutterspeed, it must've been really dark, did turned out nice for 3200 iso. A b&w version would look nice.

B&W conversion

Thanks Dave for your nice comments. Yes it was pretty dark. I did not think about the B&W conversion. So here it is:

Nice gesture from your boyfriend Alexx.
Colour is fine for me, but what they need is a smoother backdrop and more flattering lighting - even a soft window light against a complementary background.
Stop down a little more and try to remove some of the distracting elements from the scene to avoid them conflicting with the intended subject.

I think it is a lovely shot. The colors are gentle and expressive, like the shot itself, and the dimensionality derived from f 1.7 makes it extra special.

I like your title: it gives the thread that je ne sais quoi touch.
