Thank you Sonia. The top one has grown so much this year and the second is on a rose arch. It has lots of buds but they need encouragement to open up! There is just this one at the moment!
Have a great day.
That's a very tempting offer Leon :-)
Last year this time there was a heatwave!
The bokeh in the PiP is the effect of the white sky showing through the abundant leaves. Thank you for your kind comments.
Two gorgeous roses.............both captured in lovely light! The darker background in the main image makes the rose stand out beautifully and I like the way it's mirrored by the less developed bloom in the rear of the shot.
In the PiP, the yellow rose looks wonderful against the fantastic bokeh! The focus and detail in both images is spot-on! Some sun would be nice, but I think too much bright sunshine might have spoiled these.
Thank you very much Keith. The top rose bloomed for the first time last year and this year it is twice as big....just waiting for that sunshine!
The rose in the PiP is called Ginger Syllabub and it has been adorning the arch for years but I have never seen so many buds on it as this year! Can't wait for that sun ;-))
I think we are all waiting for the sun !!! we needed some rain but !!! it did stop this afternoon and brighten up a bit, regardless of the weather a beautiful image Rosalyn, the dull light is often better than bright sun. My Masquerade rose is flowering better than it has done for years but the flowers are all hanging down with the rain
