A superb rose to have in the garden, Graham, benefitting from the sun of the last few days.
I like both versions but the black b/g in V 1 does allow the flowers to stand out even more effectively.
Lovely shot in every way.
Ronnie.

I can't possible say much more other than a rather beautiful and well crafted mod.

A gloriously colourful image of a beautiful Rose. The light is lovely and of course the black bg really lifts the colours out so well.

The black background certainly makes this beautiful rose stand out and so v1 is my favourite. Beautifully taken and processed Graham!

Well worked black background, but I sort of lean towards the natural wall, so these glorious roses share my vote!

Looking over your portfolio and I see you've learned the
beauty of using a black b/g.
These roses stand out beautifully here and are ajoy to behold.
The light is catching them so well.
