I'm now filled with curiosity about this flower... it's shape is a bit rectangular vs round...which means that the branches are fairly stiff. And I don't see any thorns! Do you happen to know it's name? You've done a very nice job expressing that color without producing blast, which is more than I can sometimes do. My only nitpick, and it isn't much, is that I'd like to see more rose and less foliage on the sides of this pic. Maybe it needs to be cropped and reframed...
