When I saw the title...I thought you were gonna show us a 'Lettuce'

We call lettuce (salad leaves) Icebergs!...Shows you how my warped mind works eh!..lol

Much, much better than a lettuce!...Just Beautiful!..

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

LE, fantastic detail in the petals. White is such a difficult color and you did an extraordinary job with it in this picture.

Lyn - I saw a video clip of calving glaciers last evening, so I had ocean bound icebergs in my mind. Instead, I opened you posting to see this gorgeous rose bloom. As John notes, capturing white is challenging; not an issue for you however. Excellent lighting on the details of this rose. Beautiful presentation. Thad

I originally thought lettuce, or one of those things that once had an argument with the Titanic.
But this beauty will more than compensate, Lyn.

Very good clarity and a nice presentation, Lyn. The pale pink in the centre changing to white looks beautiful.

Such a delicate looking flower and you captured the beauty of it perfectly. I love how just a tiny tip of the petal is hanging over the frame. Beautiful!

Absolutely great photo of this white rose, Lyn. Beautiful lighting and great depth of focus adds your photo 3D effect. Very fine details on this very hard to take color.

I bet Stan (Roseman) will enjoy this one since his roses have went to sleep for the winter. How long are your winters anyway?
The weather seems to be pretty nice year round.
The canon did super on this one LE.

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.
