Beautiful photo!

"The larger the object being "forked," the better. Objects must be a minimum of 1 meter or 3 feet away from the fork."
I don't think you are far enough away from the rose.

I didn't get out a measuring tape, but it looked about 3 feet. Taken at f32

i agree with "friiskiwi" and btw you don't need to get a tape to measure the distance .. it's only 1m .. if you are away from the flower 1m, then i guess the flower is giant

Yeah, they were pretty large roses = but vote how you feel, of course
