Scentimental
This was taken the on the same hound walk as yesterday's rose. I used to have a Scentimental Rose when I lived in the desert, but I could not keep it alive through more than one summer of 130° temperatures even with an automated dripper.

More Flowers!
This is in response to the feedback I received this evening
on the flower photos page. Ironically,
flowers are the biggest category in the site. Of course,
they are one of my favorite subjects too so I am happy to
add more! It was actually a flower photo that inspired me to
start the site.
Thanks for your feedback Sahana!

Backyard Rose Bud
Well most of our tomatoes have faded in the hot weather.
But the roses are still happy! This one is just about to burst.
I really enjoy close up photography. The green covering of the bud is made of
modified leaves called bracts. But I never really appreciated the tiny little
leaves sticking out from the edges of the bracts before.
There is a lot of beauty out there!

Rain Bud
Not usually awake very early in the morning. But once in a while I catch the good morning light!

Rose Bud
Sometimes the plant is as interesting as the flower! Especially in the right lighting.
