A rose for you all!

LaFoto · Oct 22, 2006

New member Andie's photo of the Pink Rose (here ) reminded me of the fact that I had seen a late blooming rose close to the swimming pool, so yesterday I decided to take the camera along on my taking Sabine to her morning training unit and take a photo of that very rose.

Here it is for you, also to celebrate my 15.000th post and to say thank you to the entire forum for being a place where I like to be!

Enjoy!

Beautiful photos of a beautiful flower- and rare.

Congratulations on all the above and 15k.

PS, as a display of respect I will not bump my photos for 24 hours.

Oh Corinna, what beautiful pics! You captured all the subtle shading in the flower, and the one with the water droplets is gorgeous.

Congrats on 15,000 posts. That's quite an accomplishment.

Some very nice colours there and pleasant lighting too! Not something you'd expect to see late on in the year.

Congratulations on 15,000 too! Some people would say that's some impressive spamming but in your case we know it's from all the replies and comments on other peoples photos you've made. :thumbup:

Darkened background, the pale pink looks passionate, but more in a nuanced manner. The waterdrops adds a highened feel of the texture of the flower. Well done.

Congratulations on the 15K. Love the roses.

:thumbup: :thumbup: on #3, that is a classic shot. We have already had a frost but that doesn't seem to hurt the roses. They can sometimes last to December here.
