I don't really know if this is a "Wild Rose" or not but I had to call the photo something. :) Pentax K20D, DA*16-50. 36mm, 1/90, F8, ISO 100. I was delighted with how sharp and smooth this came out. I made two images from the raw file, one for the shaded part of the flower (In which the sunlit petals were washed out.) and the rest of the image and one for the petals in direct sunlight so that they had plenty of colour in them then blended the sunlight colour rich petals into the rest of the image. The Gimp is my best friend. :)

Enjoy.
