This rose is a sizzler indeed, and oh my, on such a hot, hot day! It is ninty one in MI today! I should have perhaps posted a wintry scene? LOL! Marilyn
This is just lovely Marilyn!
Perfect as a matter of fact!
I hope I didn't offend you with your earlier uploaded image with the comment I made about the lighting?

Excellent! Well-balanced with the great clarity and color, and the flowers look almost 3-dimensional with the soft, out-of-focus background. The inclusion of the unopened flower in the lower right was a very good decision.
Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.

Dear June, no you didn't offend me in any sense of the word! As I mentioned to you previously, I really wasn't proud of the photo, and wanted to delete it even before your comment was read! Thank you for your sensitivity dear, but please don't worry! We can talk later, OK? Sincerely, Marilyn
Not until the creation and maintenance of decent conditions of life for all men are recognized and accepted as a common obligation of all men . . . shall we . . . be able to speak of mankind as civilized.

I am still extremely busy with projects but hopefully things should slow down by the end of the summer. Please know that I appreciate you all and will stop by and visit your images as often as I can. My best to all my friends.
Sincerely,
