A few weeks ago, I was given some beautiful roses….not only were they wonderful in full bloom, but the decayed most fabulously!
Here are two illustrations of their gradual decline:

You never cease to amaze me with this series. Wonderful.
Many thanks, Cee – I have to say, I’ve surprised myself! Best experiment I tried…..
Lovely!
Thanks, Jude… More BID soon!
Lovely.
Thanks!
So gorgeous Sue. As I have said before It amazes me how you can take something that for most would be garbage and create such a gorgeous shot.
Thank you, Sue….much appreciated! I must say, from what started as an experiment, it has proved a great project. Now I’ve got to come up with the next one…..
The faint flame of hope.
One way of looking at it, Marcelo!
Some roses only grow more beautiful when they decay. Gorgeous, Sue.
Thanks, Otto! These roses obviously fit that criterion!
Truly lovely photography Sue .
a touch of glamour
fading in the twilight
beauty in decay
Ah, nicely put, Polly! Thanks for the poetic response 🙂 how’s life in your neck of the woods?
🙂 colourful !
Oops, sorry, Poppy I called you Polly 😦
No worries 🙂
This was worth waiting for 🙂 I’m wishing I didn’t throw my last bunch out!
I like the first one best 🙂 Happy weekend, Sue!
Thank you, Jo! I think one of my favourite of this series, but I must say I prefer the second image because it really lends itself to the low key mood 😀 more BID later today!
I’m still a sucker for colour 🙂 Hugs!
Oh, and happy weekend to you!
I like this even better!!! And like Jo, I prefer the first shot too 🙂
Something of the dancer about the first shot, I think….
It really doesn’t get boring! Absolutely gorgeous photos Sue…The colors of the rose are amazing!
Thanks, Alex, much appreciated! I’m amazed at how this series is still rolling on!
My preference is for the second one, for me the angle is perfect – great minds Sue ;D
Looking forward to seeing you next week. x
Glad you like it Maggs! Look forward to next week, lots to catch up on!
magic!
Thanks! They were rather wonderful subjects….
