Rose's Rose

Oh My Giddy Aunt! Away for a day and a bit and so much to catch up with!! Thank goodness I spotted a beautiful rose in my Mum's vase when we visited... I let the rose fill the viewfinder, took a shot close up and went with it!

So touched by all your comments on my nutcase Friday shot of the penny and the elephant! So glad there are some people in the world who understand a little of what I do and why!! Thank you. :)

Gorgeous textures it could almost be fabric, I really like that you chose to fill the frame with the bloom too as it allows the eye to really focus on the lines and patterns.
