The lace is very very old, possibly 200 years, the rose is fresh from the garden. The lace was given to me many years ago by my mother-in-law and it had belonged to her grandmother. In another life, before computer and camera took over I designed and made clothes, and I used some of the lace on the shirt these pearls and rose are lying on. Taken with Canon EOS450D, 60mm macro lens. Thank you for viewing. This is my contest entry.

Simple and beautiful and deserves to do well in the competition. The detail in the lace and the lustre of the pearls have both been wonderfully captured.

The reason why the sunsets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??
Very nice still life photo, with pretty rose and pearls. A powerful entry to the contest. Good luck in the contest, my friend.

Beautiful job, wonderful lens, great idea! I wouldn't want to wear the blouse though for fear I would stain it.

Can't believe you got it in just one shot! Gorgeous!
Perhaps the 164 practice shots helped? lol
A true work of art Lyn.

People aren't going to remember the things you do. They're going to remember how you made people feel. Be kind, gracious, and appreciative.

Lyn - The soft focus vignette works beautifully for this delicate image. Thad

What is life, if full of care,
we have no time to stand and stare - and take pictures!
