Did a tour of the garden this morning and its hard to know where to start. Our mild wet winter has everything blooming early and strong. This is my favorite rose bush and I liked the juxtaposition of the bud against the BG of a mature flower. All comments welcome. >=))>
Very original composition, Bill, the reds and yellows filling the frame ( almost ! ) beautifully. The bud seems as if pushing up against the petals, giving quite a dynamic feel to the image.
Bill, I love this rose bud with an open bloom as the background. You really are getting some flowers early. It is making me even more read for spring.
