Lovely pink and I can almost smell the sweet fragrance of it Terry. Nice clarity and beautiful pink color. Excellent post, thanks for sharing this one.

"Acknowledge yourself for how far you have come, instead of how far you think you have to go." I'm always happy to see you at My Gallery. I appreciate all of you. Thanks, Anita
Sweet is an understatement ... it is incredble nice... summer is coming to an end, and all the more apriciated because of that.

I love the way it looks painted in the background and the rose is so clear. I can almost smell ilt! I love your quotes, too. They always go perfectly.

How lovely it is when unexpected blessings come into my life to cheer me up and put a smile into my heart. Help me to pass them on, dear Lord. Fay Angus
I had to take a second look at the background, too - did you do something special to it? This rose is stunning and the whole scene is so well composed, Terry! Gosh, does it look great on the desktop!

It's all about perspective and perception.
Sweet! I do like the treatment you did on the background. This is special, and it does work well on the desktop. That's what it's all about.

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. Henry D. Thoreau
Absolutely gorgeous rose and I love the message. Did you write that? And, how so very true about thorns with every rose. Sure wish I could find a way to enjoy the roses without the thorns. Lovely post and a most beautiful rose.

Don't tell me it's good, tell me what is good about it. Don't tell me it stinks, tell me what I can do do improve it. Thank you for taking the time to tell me anything at all. Be blessed. anne :-)
Now that's a really neat effect, doing something different to the background, but leaving the rose in it's natural beauty alone. Creative thinking. Very nice composition and beautiful two toned rose!

Obviously Frank Stanton knew a lot about life and roses, and you know a lot about how to post a wonderful pic that is enjoyable..everyone has already remarked on the eye-catching backdrop, and I like the interesting manipulation work here. It doesn't detract from the carefully realistic presentation of the rose, and it was captured so well. The colors are soft and fresh...no wonder as others have commented it's almost as if you can smell it. The lighting picks up the highlights on the delicate lighter parts, and is very kind in its illumination, not overdoing anywhere...the shadows created make this even more endearing and it's going straight into my faves. :)PJ
