This Rose usually blooms in the Summer and I had given up all hope of it making an appearance this year.Imagine my surprise when I looked out the window a few days ago and saw a bud on it. I was as "tickled pink" as this Rose. I just wanted to share this with my friends here at Caedes. Please enjoy viewing and commenting if you'd like.I appreciate and thank all of you. You're the best!

Also BIG thanks to all who check out my work!! I appreciate any and all comments & feedback!!
The last hooray...hehehe.. So glad you were blessed with this color so late in the year. Very nicely done Eileen. =DD

Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you.
How very nice that it came out to show you how pretty it is. Very nice post. Thank you for posting this one for all to view.

I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

The eye of a camera looks into the beauty of all that has been created by God for mankind to see, protect, and preserve for the future generations.
This is a most beautiful rose I love how you also captured the thorns as well. Excellent

Can't always give individual thanks but I am so appreciative of everyone's comments and input. I truly enjoy seeing all of your posts and am always happy to see you at My Gallery. Thanks, Anita
As soon as that rose came up in the thumbnail, I thought I smelled it, you made it look so real. Nivce work. I like all the folds and well they show up.
Nice work.

It's all about perspective and perception.
What a lovely surprise for you Eileen and what a wonderful job you've done in sharing it with us. It's so crisp and clear on my screen I find myself tempted to put my nose to the screen to catch it's aroma. Thanks for sharing this delight to my eyes.

Just an old "Grampa" who still has a Kodak "Box" camera kicking around the attic ... learning and enjoying the wonders of modern digital photography.
Beautiful capture, Eileen! Not only the Rose is adorable, but I like the way you included the thorny stem - just to remind us of reality? Great post - thank you!

Thank you for this lovely rose Eileen. It's really cheering me up today! Love the soft sweet color that contrasts so well with the prickly thorns.
