This was such a beautiful bloom with the most intense red color, I had to share it. Taken at the Chicago Botanic Garden. All comments and critiques appreciated.

For me "just a red rose" is like "just a date with Johnny Depp and a bottle of Chateau Margaux"! Floats my boat any day. Really fabulous.
