Had to come back to this one a couple of times. Still not sure my comment will express what is uniquely artistic in this shot. It's quite different. Almost appears to be in flight. The color is magnificent and I like the way the water drops have settled in it. I'm with Alexis on the view. ;)
i usually think these rose macros are a bit cliquish... but this one is truly magnificent. A stunning beauty- very artistically captured!
Thanks for sharing!
