Climbing Rose Bloom

12 years 8 months ago #116052 by The Time Capturer
This is the first bloom of the season from my climbing rose bush. I know the composition isn't the greatest but it was at the top of my arbour and I was standing on a bench, holding the camera up above my head. I basically captured it blindly. I love the peach colour of these flowers, that's why I bought it.

There are buds down lower that should be open in the next couple of days ... I'll get better pix then.


Sure, practice makes perfect but, unless you learn from your mistakes, you are only perfecting your ability to fail.

Well done...:judge: :thumbsup: There is an old adage that even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every once in a while. This is a good example... :woohoo:
