My question is about the focus and the composition. I appreciate any comments.

I like the color & the focus. My only issue is with composition. I would like to crop this to make it a full frame image of the rose. The leaves down to the lower right do not add anything to the image and serve as a mild distraction.

Overall, a nice job! Keep on Shooting!

I agree, I would much rather see more of e rose and the dew than the leaves and background. But I love the lighting - beautiful color too!
