The Rose

This is a new style for me. I'd very much appreciate feedback or

hints for improving. I'm not sure I'm entirely pleased with the

harshness of the highlights on the left. Does someone have

suggestions for how that could be toned down a bit in Photoshop in a

pleasing way. It may have gotten clipped in the red channel because

when I darken it seems to shift the tone... at least I think that's

what's happening. Is the cropping good? Thanks for viewing and

thanks in advance for help.
