Raindrops on roses #3

A familiar subject and one I’ve ‘done’ a couple of times before.

This image is different to the others, but as I’ve said before, don’t expect whiskers on kittens any time soon.

The White Rose

This rose climbs on a trellis in our garden. The petals are pure white, but the ‘working parts’, as it were, are vibrant yellow and orange.

A Deckchair Made Of Roses

This is not something you see every day. Unless you happened to be at the Festival of Roses in Douai La Fontaine a couple of years ago.

Roses In Decline

Sic transit gloria mundi.

Madame’s very lovely Mothers’ Day bouquet, two weeks on.

Pink Enough?

Cee’s theme for her CMMC challenge this week is ‘pink’. Will this do?

Red, Red Rose

This dark red rose also has a wonderful scent.

Eglantine

I believe that this variety of rose is known as Eglantine and it’s a very old one. It’s also pink, with a yellow heart, so suitable for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week.

Heady

Who can resist the heady scent of roses?

Tuesday Photo Challenge: Rose

Frank’s chosen the topic of ‘Rose’ for this week’s Tuesday Photo Challenge. I have no shortage of images of roses in my library, so the only problem was selecting one previously unposted. I think this fits the bill. It’s a French rose called ‘Pierre de Ronsard’ and I saw it last year at the annual festival of roses at Doué-La-Fontaine
