Flower Friday: Rose

I thought I'd try to be a bit creative and use some of the Photoshop techniques from John Gravett's workshop last week.

I think I've got some way to go but I had fun anyway!

This is one of a bunch of red roses which "someone" gave to my Editor on Valentine's Day (I wonder who that "someone" might be...?!) - they've lasted remarkably well, and they were only guaranteed for 5 days (whoops, have I given the game away, knowing that...?)  ;-))

Many thanks as always to BikerBear for hosting Flower Friday.
