A sunlit bloom smile on my Veterans' Honor rosebush to share with all of you. I hope the love within this bloom serves to heal wounds and re-unite those torn apart by mean, angry or thoughtless actions or words. A tall order but not impossible.

Your words and the beauty of the rose go hand in hand Ace. I know that sounds like an oxymoron but it is true. Wonderful post.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

It does look like velvet, the back ground is perfect to bring out the red color, I think it is one of your best.

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. . . . . . . . . .. . . .

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
