I really love roses, and was just captivated with this rosebud, when I saw it on a neighbours rose bush.
I was taken with the tiny cross, on the bud, which the underleaves has made on the delicate rose bud.
I also like the late afternoon water droplets on the rose, after the neighbour had watered the garden.
I have dedicated this image to my special friend, SandyP
This is a very beautiful capture of a rose bud. The water treatment almost looks like it is thawing, I almost want to eat it like a wonderful fruit. Nice dedication to your friend.
Shez!!!!!! What a beautiful photo in its own right -- but beyond even its beauty and the skill with which you have brought it to life with the colors, the water, and the composition, it has touched me deep in my soul today because you dedicated it to me! Thank you so much for your kindness and friendship! I will treasure this forever.
I really love the treatment of this photo. The colors and watercolor feel of this are so cool. I'm glad you are feeling better and are able to get out and take pictures again.
