Distant drums is a beautiful rose Stan - such a nice capture. We've had roses blooming as late as November in the last decade since it is warmer - don't know about Colorado.

Oh Stan, I do hope that the leaving of the roses for the season won't mean you won't be with us:(...knowing your ability to do some wonderful manipulations, I hope you will find in inspiration in reworking some of your previous floral shots to share with us...I will 'hold close' that hope...meantime, a lovely capture of this warm colored beauty.
Great bordering on this one..
