I have a couple of rose images shot this summer so I'll post them this week as autumn officially begins Saturday. About white roses from Telelora: "Representing, humility, purity and innocence, the white rose - often referred to as the bridal rose - is associated with young love. In Scotland, when the white rose bloomed in autumn, it was seen as a token of early marriage. Also symbolizing truth and reverence, it sends a message of loyalty." This white rose had an unusual center that stayed yellow and closed. All comments and critiques appreciated.

White roses are the best. I love the buttery center on this one. When I tried growing white roses, the Japanese beetles loved them more.

Love how the rose fades from white into a beautiful yellow center. A beautiful rose to be sure! Bet it smells great too.

I'm not falling for the autumn gambit again this year. A lovely last bit of summer you've squeezed into this shot, Kathy. Lovely soft colours and nice details in the photo.
