White rose macro: color and black-and-white

The name of this rose is Honor. The late afternoon light was so beautiful this evening.

And here it is in black and white. I always have such resistance to letting the color go. Which is more thrilling?

Magenta bougainvillea

I have a bougainvillea standard (little tree) that I take inside each fall. Here it is enjoying the sunshine on our patio.

At last year’s Alki Art Fair there was a very happy dog at the water’s edge.

Lavender garden

In front of my house I have some roses, and now there are lavender plants as well. A good contrast, I think.

Tropicana rose

This year the Tropicana rose and other roses in my front yard are much happier than last year. I’ve been using Dr. Earth fertilizer and it seems to make a huge difference. NOTE: I might be in error on the name. I think this is Fragrant Cloud. Tropicana has more pink and yellow.
