I like this photo by Patrick Demarchelier because of its unbalanced proportions. The rose is huge but somehow it doesn't take all the attention. I still notice the woman that's under the rose. I think this is because the rose leads to the woman. She is its stem and normally, flowers have stems but since this one doesn't we naturally search for one. I love how the woman's face is half covered. It makes it more beautiful and more mysterious. The shadows on her body are also very good. It's dramatic and hits very sharply. Half of her is light and the other is dark. I also love the shadows on the rose because it enhances the 3D feel of the rose. It makes it feel more silky and more lively and existing.
