I gave up trying to grow roses. I had some pretty ones, but the deer ate the juicy buds and the leaves and the thorny stems and all I had left was wild shoots from below the graft. So I have to go somewhere to enjoy the roses. In this case, roses for sale at the grocery store. I'll visit some gardens early in June and admire their lovely roses -- and take a few more photographs.
Lovely shot, Jo. The open rose looks like it's whispering sweet nothings to the closed one. ;-) Great capture.
ReplyDeleteI hope your deer don't make a visit to the grocery store garden center! ;-)
WHat a lovely image. The colors are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love yellow roses and your photo is spectacular! My MIL has a problem with the deer eating her roses, too. They're trying some deer repellent now, hopefully it will work.
ReplyDeleteGreat picture. I really like your composition and the colours are beautiful. Nice!! The elk eat mine too!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful shot. The color and composition are perfect.
ReplyDeleteJo, these are absolutely beautiful! Love that soft yellow!
ReplyDeleteI love roses. We had a large number of them growing up and I believe my mom still has some of them in the yard. Lovely shot with beautiful color.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful roses and perfect composition. The yellow is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful photo. The roses are a gorgeous color.
ReplyDeleteExquisiet, Jo. Great composotion with that one tall bud juxtaposed agaisnt the open flowers.
ReplyDeleteI love how you composed this, fabulous light and color too. I'd happily send you dog hair for deer repellent ;-)
ReplyDeletehaving the bud next to the fully opened mature flower is very effective.
