Default A Lovely Rose for a special friend
Hello all my friends. I did a little pp on this lovely Rose for a very special friend, and they liked it, so i thought that I would post it to show my appreciation for the wonderful friendship. Thanks for looking.

Pink Rose

Dave.

You must have a beautiful garden. Do all of the flowers that you have been shooting come from your garden?

Jake, I see a lot of roses on this site, but the lighting on that one is really spectacular. Well done!

A fantastic shot of a rose. Like others have said, the lighting, colour, and tonal tange is fantastic! I also like the composition, too! Nicely done.
