Believe it or not, I took this shot yesterday at dusk. I was walking through my yard and noticed that my roses were blooming -- in early December in the cold! I took a few shots, which were rather boring and I decided to try the flash.
ReplyDeleteExcept for a bit of cropping, this is right from the camera, no special effects.
Roses in December is pretty cool. Nice shot.
ReplyDeleteOh these are so pretty! The upside down ones do look like fairy skirts.
ReplyDeleteYou would think down here in Florida, WHERE IT WILL BE IN THE STINKING MID-80's TODAY (I'm over it) that we would have beautiful blossoms everywhere. But not in my yard.
ReplyDeleteWow.... I would think it was too chilly for them to be opening up... lovely...
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful and what a special treat on a cold December day! I just got a new camera (a good one finally) so maybe I'll start taking photos! LOL -- in my free time!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot Beth!
ReplyDeleteWow, roses in December. They're gorgeous with the black background.
ReplyDeleteTo have roses still blooming by December is a real treat! Lucky you!
ReplyDeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteThose are gorgeous!
ReplyDeletethey are very pretty beth, I just love roses. If you want to wander down my road I’m home.
ReplyDeletewhen I first saw that photo, I thought "she must have taken that in the summer". that is surprising. lovely but surprising!
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely shot.
ReplyDeleteMy first question to you was going to be "when did you take that picture?" I can't believe you have roses in your yard opening up still! Looks like we're about to get our first snow of the year, so no more flowers around here.
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful find in December. And a beautiful shot as always. Thank you for this.
ReplyDeleteGee, my roses froze out weeks ago. It's nice to see yours.
ReplyDeleteSnnnnnnnnnniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiffffff!
ReplyDeleteYou're so lucky to be enjoying these beauties so late in the year. And with a charming name too!
Beautiful! I love roses!

ReplyDeleteThat shot is awesome. Just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYour title recalls for me The Flower Fairies. Happy thoughts. Thanks.
Nice to live someplace that flowers are still in bloom :)
ReplyDeleteLovely
Absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOh, they are so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWow, they are some hardy flowers. Pretty too. I like that hint of pink on the petals.
ReplyDelete(Sorry for the lateness of the visit - I just spent the past two days preparing for the opening my new etsy store - my head is still spinning!)
Beautiful petals! Great shot, Beth!
ReplyDeleteWell worth getting nippy fingers in the dusky cold - nice shot!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture. I can't believe that was in your yard in December!
