Hi BJ, my oh my, what beauty to behold! The perfect rose floating in a sea of just the right colors, with flecks of subtle beauty, and the finnishing touch of velvet trim, pretty cool!!! I offer 10's and into my favs! Sincerely, Marilyn
I agree with all the previous comments. It is a lovely photo! I also like the way you phrased the "Happy Mother's Day!" I know of many men, mostly widowers, who are raising children by themselves. More power to all!
Your friend has graced you with a real beauty here and I love the deep rich background and framing you have added...quite lovely...enjoy your day tomorrow.:Pat.
Finally I have time to visit some works of yours that I missed earlier. They never disappoint. There is something very subtle, peaceful and warm in this offering - a respectful tribute that has gone straight to the favourites!
BJ its a special beautiful pictue a very nice frame with perfect colors and the blushing flower. And yes Its very subtle.......and...and.....so GREAT. Thanks for sharing.

May God's love fill you
You know BB. when I reviewed your gallery, I found that somehow, over a year ago, I missed this beautiful rose that the two of you did! I hate when I miss an image that is as gorgeous as this, Everything came together and made this one "pretty"!! Good job! :~)
Thanks for the visit to ~painted moth~. I thought I would have to beat the people back from this butterfly so I could step in and get a quick shot! Everyone was just standing and staring at it....I was sure that it would find another tree before I could raise my lens to it, but good fortune was with me and I was able to snap off two photo's and this one was the best. This butterfly was a beauty for sure. It was great seeing you pop-up in the comment area........your support, comments and critiques are very deeply appreciated. Thank you my friend :~)
