Nice photo. Very sharp and beautiful color. I think I would crop out some of the background though.

I tried a closer crop but it seemed too confining.

Good capture Brian. I like alot. Have you tried rotating the image so rose is in top half? is that its branch to the right? i feel it should be upright. Thats just me though i love the colour and texture of that rose, like i can almost feel it.

Yes the stem of the rose is curved. Upright would be okay but I shot it at the angle it dangled at. i am pleased with the colours too.

Have you considered the practice of obscuring the background with a drape?

I like to work with what is there. When i have tried a drape it never seems to look right.
