the importance of the rose by summerfield

the importance of the rose

"C'est le temps que tu as perdu pour ta rose qui fait ta rose si importante." - Le Petit Prince de Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.

i found my copy of 'le petit prince' that one of my belgian friends gave me when i was still in the old country. it is a 1982 edition and printed in france. the paper is becoming quite brittle. i read it in its entirety during lunch. i could not get tired reading that book.

for today's shape prompt for flash of red.

Gorgeous low key. Saint Exupery is one of my favorites author. Of course "Le Petit Prince" is close to my heart.

Very elegant photo and magnificently done. The water drops add to the beauty of the composition. Who knew a flower could be beautiful in black-and-white? You chose one with a wonderful shape.

Very nicely done Vikki. I did French for 5 years at high school and I still have my copy of Le Petit Prince. I love the story but 50 years on my French isn't very good. Luckily I also have an English version 😂

I like this low key look at the Rose. I read this book when I was in 8th grade French class. i should go back and read it again (in English) to remember what it was about.
