Flower on the Diagonal

[snoid]

Pretty much a classic shot, except the flower is facing down.
I like the DOF in this one.

I like the color of the rose and the nice balance of highlights and shadows ...neither is overdone and it gives it all a nice, natural feel. I would crop about an 1/8th of the shot on the left to remove the bud in the upper left ...not sure it adds anything to the photo.
