A Rose is a Rose is a Rose

and I'm sorry to say that's all I've got for a picture today! Actually, I adore roses so I don't mind taking pictures of them at all but it was just too darn cold out today to go anywhere so I decided to stay in and just take another rose picture for lack of any other brilliant idea!
