Passable

Good camera, bad eyes, (because of the dilation today at the doctor's) yields a fair to middlin' shot of a late summer rose in my yard.

This is an awesome shot, Katy. Love the color and detail you captured. FAV

Too hard on yourself, look how far you have come. This is so pretty, the pov, the comp, the colour. All good

[MaryBeth Dailey]

Sorry your dilation was getting in the way! But this rose "rose" to the occasion for you and helped make for a lovely photo. BA dum bump! Hee hee

[Maggiemae]

Its a gorgeous shot of the rose - lovely shape and display of the petals!

[Rick Schies]

It creates a nice soft image. Hope things clear up soon

Lovely colours - and great pov.

@kiwiflora Way too kind with that praise but thanks so much!

@johenn I appreciate it, Jo. It always feels a bit like cheating because flowers are always beautiful.

[Marilyn Wigen]

Flowers may always be beautiful but you have the ability to make them spectacular! The PoV and composition and crisp, yet soft details are amazing... and did you try it on the black... truly gorgeous!

[katy]
