From The Rose Garden

The focus is texture this week. Thanks for stopping by today and happy Monday!

Wonderful clarity and detail captured through this image. You've been able to transfer the delicateness of the petals and the more hardy leaves.. Interesting choice for b&w even though I'm sure the color version was beautiful. Well done..

[Martina]

Beautiful capture Lin, I was once a pretty rose but turn that colour and my petals drooped. FAV
