Pearl Roses at Dusk

Very few flowers have the grandeur of the rose.  These soft cream-colored roses remind me of pearls in the way that they reflect light.  It seemed fitting to photograph them on a piece of embroidered silk with pearls. The color and texture of the petals varied as the sun went down, highlighting their luminescence.  I love to photograph near dusk...

  2. Hi Lisa, you're so right about the rose. These are beautiful and I love the soft, cream color too.

    The ones I pick are never quite so perfect (smile).

    Popping by from BYW2 for a visit. I'll see you in class.

    1. Lisa,

      The ones I pick are never quite so perfect either :) I wish they were... These are from the florist at our market. He always has a lovely selection of roses.

      Thanks for visiting!
