Tea Rose... by marlboromaam

Tea Rose...

My tea roses are blooming! Armed with my trusty squirt bottle, I set out to attempt a good shot. Well... it's NOT great but it's what I got.

Way behind! Will catch up as quick as I can!
It's fresh and just the right amount of development! Take a photo every day to follow it's course! Tea roses are the best!

Love the water drops!! What a great idea to spray them, I never would have thought of that.
April 27th, 2012  
You wouldn't have had to get out the spray bottle in VA today. :-) But you wouldn't have had that gorgeous light either. You created delight!
April 27th, 2012
