When roses are black by maggiemae

When roses are black

This evening the sky suddenly displayed brilliant colour so I tried to get the garden roses in as silhouettes.

Three good things;
1. We cleaned the outside of the caravan - brush and the garden hose - not only the caravan got wet!
2. Roast stuffed lamb - used to be called ‘Colonial Goose’! No relation to geese as far as I can see!
3. Rhubarb.
Wow, super picture of roses with sunset background - I'd never think of that!

@shesnapped Got so much rhubarb, Ashley - coming out our ears!

Nice silhouette against the brilliant sunset. Yummy Roast stuffed lamb sounds good. Not so keen on rhubarb though.

@kiwinanna You just have to put plenty of sugar with it, Liana when you cook it! Bite the bullet - rhubarb is good for you!

You are killing me with the rhubarb!!!

This is a very romantic looking photograph for some reason. I love the silhouettes of the perfectly shaped roses against that beautiful sunset sky

Beautiful sunset and the silhouette of the roses is a great addition.

@pamknowler It was stuffed when I bought it, Pam - a rule - don't stuff it when its already stuffed! Nice with a touch of herbs.

@grammyn You like, you don't like? I've got bags of frozen rhubarb in the freezer that we have to eat before going away! I'll probably end up looking like a stick of rhubarb by then!
April 18th, 2017  
@brillomick What a good idea - but I think I'll make rhubarb shortcake, Mickey!
April 18th, 2017  
The roses make a nice silhouette, the sky in the background looks dramatic.
