Gosh ..... hello Pops! How very nice to see you in here!

Nice roses, as usual too. I'd say there are a few blown highlights on the first one and the focus point seems to be a tad more on the leaf (left side) than on the 'leading rose'.

Second shot of the bud - I'd have liked the bud and petals to be slightly sharper and maybe reduce the yellow tones.

Hi Pops,

The leaves in the bottom left corner are distracting to the beauty of the rose to my eye. The second one is quite pleasing in it's composition - the central positioning maybe slightly improved by a square crop.

Cheers,

Chris

There is something on the bud, just out of focus,like a greenfly or dandelion seed that distracts my eye, Pops.
But of the two it is the one that I prefer.
