Fairy rose by maggiemae

Fairy rose

One of my latest pleasures is leaning out the window and pruning this tiny climbing rose! I now leant out the window and tried to use a good aperture for both focus and blur! Its such a sweet little rose, I can see a fairy sitting on them!


Three good things:
1. My Banffshire potatoes were a bit fiddly but turned out well. Banffhshire is a former county, and a Lieutenancy area of Scotland whatever that means! Really just stuffed potatoes!
2. Bought radish seed to plant.
3. Sprayed the garden for weeds and as I did the kerbside edges by the road, I heard the soft sounds of Christmas songs! It came from the house over the road where the young fellows have exuberant parties!
Gorgeous rose!

So the young party givers are real softees at heart bless them! This is such a stunning rise. It's got green edging along the petals...amazing! Has it got a name? Love your pottering at home time....was beginning to think we would never be home again!

@happypat I played around with the white balance here, Pat! These young fellows have been so good with the music volume in their parties since John wandered over to have a chat with them1

They really have their unique look and you have achieved your goal of focus and blur in one shot.

They could be tiny, but your shot makes them look fabulously gigantic! The light is wonderful.
