Hello John :)
thanx for the comment and suggestion, I can see what your talking about, cropping the image closer would reduce the gloomy effect!
Thanx I appreciate it :)

To be perfectly honest the is very nice Arwa!About the only change that I might make is to crop in from the sides until the image is square to focus more attention on the flower and less on the leaves around it.Of course this is only a suggestion and obviously this is fine just like it is,hence the best in project award!Congratulations on a fine photograph Arwa!!!
Excellent tones and outstanding angle of this shot!The l;ighting is right on and Your presentation is fist rate!Way to go!
Take care Arwa!My very best!..........John

Congratulations on the award Arwa!!! Fantastic tones/drops! IMO it would have been even better alone, without any leaves - anyway, a very VERY beautiful rose!!!

Congrats Arwa! I like the crisp tones and your frame compliments the image very well. I would have preferred to see it without the background "objects".
Nevertheless, a very good capture.
Well done.

That?s a deep thought hugo!! I was thinking about the short life of a rose and how much joy it spreads and then simply dies when I edited the image
Its quite interesting when u look back at pictures taken few months or years ago and then tweak them to fit ur current mood
Oh teach me to see death and not to fear,"
But rather to take truce
How often have I seen you at a bier
And there look fresh and spruce;
You fragrant flowers then teach me that my breath
Like yours may sweeten and perfume my death"
Henry king
Thanx for the comment ;)

Simple and nice! For my tastes would be better without bright areas around the rose (easy with PS)... and with a little crop in the bottom and in the left... About my pic: i use only a bit of PS (2 identical layers -> curves on the layer on the top for darkening the image -> a little work with the "eraser tool" (30%) for remove the dark layer on the top on the face). Ciao from italy ;)

Hi Arwa, With the last B&W floral I mentioned the gloomy atmosphere, and now you picked the right flower to emphasise that... The lighting is superb, in the way that it not only adds contrast to the image, but only partially highlight the rose emphasising the gloomy atmosphere even more. This smells of decay and death. I guess that needs some explanation, so I'll let my mind run freely. The freshness of the flower and the drops of water are only temporary, just like our existence. What remains is the sorrow of our friends and the embodiment of what used to be. It's weird how that confronting atmosphere of gloominess always appeals to me, as I feel quite the opposite from that.
Cheers,
Hugo

frankly, this is an excellent capture! The detail is excellent and the b/w really acentuates the subject! the leaves around the flower can be a bit distrating though but otherwise an excellent comopsition!

A very nice result in B&W although it is more typical in colors! I love the water drops witch is marinating the warm work of B&W. Cheers Arwa.

The flower itself is very very beautiful, looks fresh, you captured the details very well. The tone is great too. the only thing is the editing, I think some cleaning is still needed, especially to the leaves, you can remove it either by the cloning tool or using the mask.
