Hey thanks for those comments everyone
Frenchy - Too funny I TOTALLY thought of the Wall movie (Pink Floyd) when I first downloaded the roses. For me it brings back memories of scenes in that movie where 1 rose seems to be dominating the other one.
Breeze - Nope...I brought those roses there. They were roses for my wife that had started to dry up so she let me use them.
Jim - The project was for a podcast on wide angle lenses....that's why the perspective is so wonky.
Growler - I totally agree with you about the rocks grabbing your attention away in shot 1. I think it's mainly the largest rock in the lower left. I actually darkened that rock a bit...but maybe it needs 25% more darkening (burning in photospeak).
Thanks everyone! Glad most people dig the shots.
