Faded Beauty

The last rose of the year still lingers. It has faded beauty.

A beautiful composition -- I love the light ,the muted tones and the bokeh in the background . Great detail and fragility to the fading rose --fav

@beryl Thank you for your comments and fav. I think I was fortunate to get a shot of this during the golden hour before the sun set. I think the lighting made this shot.

@olivetreeann I cannot believe how long this rose is hanging on. The petals on the other rose blossoms have fallen off. @maggiemae

There is beauty to find in everything . You only have to look and watch it.
