Peace rose in bouquet
I went outside and picked a few roses. I hate to cut them but I love bouquets, so I compromise by cutting only the full-blown ones, leaving as many as possible out there. But oh, my goodness, the perfume in the room from garden roses. No florist roses ever come close.
Visit Mellow Yellow Monday, Ruby Tuesday, Color Carnival, Pink Saturday, SOOC Sunday (straight out of the camera), Today’s Flowers, Macro Monday, Macro Flowers Saturday and Macro Friday. Be sure to browse around here first. Try a new tag or category at right, perhaps?

A peace rose is just about a “perfect” rose. Great shot. Micke 🙂

Beautiful.
I grew roses and enjoyed them thoroughly when I lived in a drier climate. Haven’t yet ventured to get any since moving to this damp part of the country!

What a beautiful, beautiful shot. I had not heard of a peace rose, but now that I have seen it I am impressed with it beauty. The muted coloration is lovely. A wonderful capture. Genie

I am the very same way. I want them outside to enjoy – and I want them inside to enjoy. I guess I want it all.
