Had to utilize the roses before they perished.

Nice lines, are you considering printing; if so it would be interesting to see how it turned out?

Thanks John...no, just experimenting with what can be done with natural light. I think I might want to move on to bugs next.😊

Thanks Nandy...I believe that's your nic- name. Basically playing with macro today.

Excellent shot! What an inspiration! I will think of that angle when it comes time for my roses to come out in the Spring. If I am to print this, it has to be put in a big frame too.

Thanks Izzie and Dave. Got tired of the same full on rose shots...thought I would change it up.

Nice shot Ron, you just should clean up some white dots to get an excellent picture.

Thanks Jean. I saw those...probably should before submitting it here. This is a tough crowd ! 😊

Lovely color , IMO the whole flower would make a nice image too

Thanks Binnur. I actually started full flower 🌺 shots and decided on this one as a better image. Getting good looking BG was a challenge.

Cleaned up the white spots 😊

wait till Dave (Humpries) get to your shots...that was how I learned from Toughie Dave...he sees the nicks and knacks and crevices of shots, you know. Well, that is when he has two hours to spend on one shot.

I've been caught being lazy about 'clean-up'. Will put more effort into it next time 😊
