After getting a nice rain, this bloom on my Chicago Peace rosebush did indeed seem richer somehow. Her fragrance seemed even stronger too. Thank you for your views and comments. Have a good Friday and a great weekend!
A good rain would make the weekend nice Ace. It has been awhile since we had one. Feast or famine type weather. This foto is a feast for the eyes. The water droplets just finish off the beauty. Wonderful job of raising and shooting this Chicago Peace.
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. . . . . . . . . .. . . .

Stan, another excellent picture. I too liked the analogy Liz refered to ^above. Diamonds may be one of the hardest and strongest of all minerals but, like "Beauty killed the Beast," your Chicago Peace can capture any heart.
To be honest, Stan, words fail me - I think this is one of the prettiest photos of roses that I have ever seen. No need to say more! Probably the best.
Some people have Gurus, I have my camera. Through the cam lenses I have learnt to deeply perceive life, not only to see, but to look at all expressions of nature, becoming able to read the poetry of the flowers, receiving the embrace of the trees and flying above the clouds without wings! - Susie Sun
Really nice color and I like the water drops.
