Very nice capture for someone who is "bored". I do think the stem of the other rose could have been cloned out.

Wish I could be creative when I'm bored. Is sleep creative? Nice work with the coloring, macro and framing. Good one Jan.

The color, placement and the water drops all add to the great vibrancy of this image, Jan. A beautiful rose.

Don't tell me, you were so bored you were dancing round with this between your teeth like Carmen Miranda. That would explain the gobbets of spittle. Yuk.

I'm not a flower fan but have to admit this is very good. The black background is terrific.

Beautiful......and actually I think that in the Northern Hemi that this time of year produces some great light from a south facing window.

Lovely job .

I wish I looked this good when I was bored Jan :)
Awesome lighting here. The color of this flower is amazing! You are growing this in your house? Wow, I want one of these! This went right to my favorites. I saw it featured on the front page as a TNI (Top New Image). Congrats!!
