A fake rose in a bowl found sitting on a rose patterned table cloth atop a side table. So this might not technically qualify as a flower photo for those keeping score. I think that pretty much sums up this photo.

Hope you enjoy and your comments welcomed.

Very nice still life photo, Wendell. Good composition and arrangement. Great colors, as well.

Creative flower shot I'd say.

A rose is a rose is a rose is a rose is a rose .......I think you get the idea Wendell.
This is really good. The clarity of the rose and bowl and the blurred background make for a wonderful wallpaper.

For being a fake rose, it's beautifully resented and looks like it might be a silk flower at that. This is really a wonderful capture.

It's quite elegant, Wendell. If anything, it might have benefited from a bit more space along the top border.

Before heading to the VB, I checked out the shots my Caedes friends had posted and saw this, Wendell. I rarely am so blessed, but I just saw this very posting in the VB. Normally I would have given this a solid 7, but knowing that this was yours, Wendell, I circumvented the VB and was able to award this a minus 4. :-)

Not sure where to start, Wendell. I've been to the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, and this ain't it. Tell me how you think that you could cram 100,000 soccer fans into this piece of glass. Of all the nerve.

Truthfully, I like the shot. The colors are brilliant. The rose looks real enough. I like the distortion created by the glass and the textures of the embroidery below. Doug has a point about cropping so close to the glass, but other than that it easily deserved at least a minus 2.

If you hadn't told me that this was fake I would of spent my whole life thinking it was real! I am glad you clarified that LOL! The colors are very brilliant! I like how the two floral patterns compliment each other.

Last photo I saw you were saying of taking boatload of flower photos and now you're disappointing me :P

Cool creative shot
