Roses are always a challenge to shoot (for me), it's hard to save the color DR in post processing .... Here's the latest attempt.
Comments & critique welcome.

Very nice and soft, Igor! Because of the high key, I'd try a deeper dof as well as a comparison.

Like it Igor. Love the way you are drawn to the Central Rose whilst the others throw a hint of color but not too much

Thanks Kevin and Rob.
Kevin, deeper DOF was impossible because of low light conditions, besides I love shooting wide open (or close to :) )
