Forever Young

Wow. This photo is simply exquisite. The texture of the rose petals, the caterpillar, the composition, all are gorgeous. I love the minute details you have captured, the feeling that the edges of the petals are sharp.
There is a great balance between black and white, almost too much so. The entire picture is, if you get what I mean, too gray. I think if you could further accentuate the lights and darks/contrast of this photo it would be even better than it already is.
I also like the sharpness and clarity of this photo, but the blurred spots on the bottom right corner are a bit distracting. However, the slight blurriness in the top left corner works perfectly well as a background.
Still, I love it! Wonderful job! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h…" width="15" height="13" alt="" title="Heart"/>
