Winter Colour_DSC5731

I managed a couple of quick shots in the garden, before heading out for my usual Wednesday, lunch and movie date with old teaching friends. Most of us have known each other for 36 years and at 61, I'm the baby of the bunch.
This rose bush has at least 30 buds, so it will be a bit longer before it's pruned.

Oh, Merrelyn, this is just beautiful! I love the dreamy softness, and the pink is so gentle and pretty. Also, how fun that you keep in touch with with your old friends. This is a FAV for me!

Lovely rose buds, my rose bushes are well and truly overdue to be pruned, I'm a bit slack. Nice shot.
