A very well known and popular rose, taken awhile ago -- after the last rain we had (must've been years ago!). I decided to soften the edges with a diffusion filter. Thanks to all who view and comment.

I love the two tones of this luscious rose. The lighting is so good that I can actually see the water droplets through the petal that are on the side of the petal facting away from me. A beautiful shot.
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.
