My darling husband gave me some beautiful roses last week and their scent was absolutely divine; I came home tonight to find that they had finally passed their use by date and had dropped most of their petals. Their scent was still divine.
Just read your comment- I was in sg as a kid too in the mid 70's. It was very different going back as an adult with children but it means sg feels a bit like home esp when NZ as NZ is that much further away. When were you in sg?
Good for you for saving all this as a photo! I couldn't agree more that, though fallen, the petals are still just delicious to smell! This same sort of image also crossed my mind as I had a lot of cut roses that I photographed over that last several days...
(my friend, Billy, brought over his camera to show me some photos of his cat, my favorite, Dill, and there was a beautiful photo of fallen petals as well. Of course I told him about yours also!)
