Hi Gail,
I thought of putting more emphasis on the open rose, but felt that it would take the focus off the bud thereby making it a distraction for the eye. If I put equal focus on them, it was possible that when looking at it, your eyes would be going from one to the other. This way, even though the open rose dominates the composition, the bud is the focal point, and the eye can rest on it without the open rose demanding to be looked at...
At least that's what I was going for, lol.

Nice lighting and colous. But did you mean for the bud to be in focus, rather than the open flower? In a way, it's quite effective.
