Hi Maureen, I like what you were trying to do,composition is good, I like the background, but I don't think that the light did this rose justice.

Tea tray! you mean to say it wasnt a professional studio production, all been said i think light not perfect and for me didnt like the droopiness of the subject. nice detail though to be positive, did the best you could!
