A beautiful yellow rose with dew drops on itโs petals, edited to make it as low key as I possibly could. I never see a yellow rose without thinking of my dear friend @henriz, Henri Russell. She introduced me to 365 because she knew I loved taking photographs. Actually she always said I took more photos than anyone she knew, until she signed up for 365! ๐ 365 is my gift from Henri, every day.
since december i've been looking for yellow roses and couldn't find any. i even told the florist at the grocery store where i get my flowers to ring me up when she gets yellow roses. she had asked "as in yellow rose of texas?" and i said, 'exactly'. they were henri's favourite. i told her, too, that my mother's favourite song to sing to us was the song 'yellow rose of texas'. maybe it's the sad situation around us that all the dead people i adore are popping in my head all the time. very nice tribute to henri. aces!
It would be impossible to tell that this is a yellow rose you have done such a fabulous job of making it low-key. I love seeing the detail of the drops especially.
For the longest time,probably until today, I thought you and Henri were sisters
Henri was such a faithful supporter of my 365 project. I don't think she missed leaving a comment on a single post of mine. This is a beautiful reminder of her!
@grammyn oh my, Katy, honestly we were just friends but we did resemble each other. She never let her hair go grey though. Ha! @olivetreeann she was a faithful friend to her 365 friends. ๐ฅฐ @jgpittenger thank you! I may put the color image in my extras album, for comparison @pcoulson thank you Peter.
