Another beautiful shot eaglem. You do excellent work on these roses. This one looks a little dark to me - I think brightening the mid-tones a little would make it even better.

Beautiful rose and well captured eaglem. I agree with Alan about the brightness but difficult to do without losing detail. Your edit has over saturated the colours a bit too much
Best bet would be a Curves Adjustment like below:
These are only my thoughts, others may add other ideas.
On the 4 points, from left to right: Input / Output: 70:45 / 120:110 / 160:170 / 200:215

I'll try that later. Yes curves work.

That looks better eaglem, I was thinking something a bit more subtle that retained the more delicate colour of the original image like this:


Just using curves.

Thank you.

Lovely shot. Do any of these roses have a scent or are they like a lot of modern roses, pretty but unscented?

[eaglem]

Yes they have a subtle scent, not as strong as the Red Roses.

Beautiful shot. Just needed a little bit of an exposure lift.
