Rose 2. This is another display model of the Cleveland Rose Society.

A typical shot of a rose that is displayed by my local Rose Society.

Someone suggested to spray water so that the water droplets give it

some extra punch. I have seen other pro photographers using the

technique. Is it okay or is it unethical to manipulate the

subject/environment? I am an amateur and would like to hear from

experienced people. Thanks.

I like that this is in perfect focus from front to back. I'm not sure, but I think I would want to see either a tighter crop on the details of the rose - or else a looser crop so that I can see all of the edges of the entire flower. This is a touch decision, though, because sometimes to get the whole flower, you have to get so far away that you lose the details which make the flower interesting.
