Is that a chain link fence in the background... the lines are a nice contrast to the curves. Very nice use of DoF.

Indeed, there is a chain link fence behind the flower.

Nice pic.

spot on exposure, and very nice details. IMHO a crop to push the flower a little off-centre would probably work great. TFS.

Waw! I had not imagined a flower could be so interesting in BW

It is so well exposed that one can get lost in the texture of the flower and its structure,
that one forgets that the original comment was going to be about the composition, being
too centered, which is irrelevant, because (read from the beginning)

Background is bigger than the subject. I think the tulip should be lowered to create space for the rule of 3rd.

Right, make sense, thank you!

Simple yet well executed!
Any particular reason for the panoramic aspect ratio?

Thanks! In regards to the panoramic aspect ratio - no particular reason, I guess just a personal preference I tend to shoot everything this way.
