When I saw that the Rotary Club was fundraising by offering a dozen roses for just $25, it seemed too good of a deal to pass up. I ordered a dozen for Sue and then thought to order another dozen for Shauna. Sue's were to be pink and white, and Shauna's yellow.
They both came red, but that is fine.
These opened, and when the late afternoon sun highlighted them by streaming its rays through the patio doors, I got the camera out.
Macro photography isn't my forte, but I took a few photos that I am happy with after some cropping and processing.
Spectacular rose shots. You are good!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful closeups, especially with the dark background...very dramatic!
ReplyDeleteI feel as if we ALL got roses today. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI've never had anything bad come from ordering flowers for my wife. I try to do so at random odd times to keep her guessing.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful, although it really sucks that they just flopped over. Grrr!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThey look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWhat a thoughtful idea! I've had that issue with roses too(they've been in the cooler too long?) I love the close up of the petals with the light on them. Such a rich red!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful roses! Love the red. Sometimes, the buds open and sometimes they don't.
ReplyDeleteI love rose photography. Yours especially.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots!
ReplyDeleteI can almost smell them.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad they opened--even if they weren't the correct colors. The last ones I got did that, too--flopped over just barely opening. Beautiful pics!
ReplyDeleteThat last one is particularly nice.
