Hi everyone... Isn't it amazing how the snow, actually preserves the flower...offers it moisture...and continues to furnish the needs of the flower for a 'moment in time'...;o) After a given period of time...it's demise....but meanwhile....what an exciting pleasure to view....;o) The snow affords the perfect lighting and helps to produce the vivid colors....naturally.....Photoshop lended a slight tweak with contrast....but the lighting was the key....;o) Incidentally, I have seldom failed to get a good production with the sun in the sky and the snow far below.... I am sure this theory is not shared by many, but does often work for me!! WOW... what fun it is.... to view across the sheet of white...the vivid colors of the rose....;o) Please enjoy, and thank you!! Marilyn

Such bold colours for a Rose but don’t they look good like that. It’s a real eye catcher.

There are three colours, Ten digits and seven notes, its what we do with them that’s important. Ruth Ross

What a great 'come back'? with this snowy, tender, and a soft pastel coloured, Rose, Marylyn!
The bleu sky on the background makes it complete for the 'WOW! factor!'
Thanks for sharing!

THE CAMERA'S ONLY JOB is to get out of the way of making photographs. It's entirely an artist's eye, patience, and skill that makes an image. ~Ken Rockwell VISIT MY GALLERY

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that everyone believing into Him should not perish but have eternal life.

"Imperfection is beauty; madness is genius & it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm really better than them."--Marilyn Monroe

In this is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins. 1 John 4:10

Lovely image Marilyn! A little early for snow but the excessive heat of Summer is past and the joy of Fall is before us. How's everything going? Thanks for this lovely view.

A spectacular rose that must be from the *Snow Queens* garden. All that fluffy snow is a perfect topper for this beauty. Almost looks good enough to eat :)
Thanks my flower lady, for this magnificent bloom :)
