Description I saw this tall rose bush and then it hit me how this angle shows how regal the rose can be. Something about this shot is missing for me, but since it's the only one I wanted to at least see what others thought.

This is a lovely shot Rich.  I understand about your feeling of 'something missing' though.  Could it be that, for a side shot, the petals should have more interest?  The main one that you have with light on it is virtually a flat panel, whereas possibly an assembly of curled edges would have more interest?  Just a thought anyway, seeing as you asked for opinions.  It's still a very nice shot though

This one is interesting; your initial idea was great! I like the thought of a rose being regal.

I do agree, I feel like something is missing too; I think perhaps it's because we're getting a kind of "hind-view" of the rose rather than a front-view, you know what I mean? The petals lift up so that we can't see inside of the rose; I wasn't there, so I don't know if it was possible, but I feel that if you could have photographed it from the other side, perhaps then it wouldn't have that sense of "missing" something.

Still, great color and use of framing!
