Things I Love

Roses blooming in November
My hubby gathering a bouquet of roses before they freeze
Sharing a pot of tea and a gooey dark chocolate brownie with a dear friend

Flower Power

It's grey in my neck of the woods right now
So here is some 'Flower Power' to brighten your day!

Available as Greeting Cards in my Etsy Shop

Color Inspiration - Pink Climbing Rose

This heavenly scented climbing rose has such delicate shades of green and blush - Nature yet again giving us a lovely complementary palette

Artful Color for Creative Projects

Color Inspiration - Soft Pink Rose

 Another rose from our new garden - the name? "Beverly"

So of course we had to find a spot for it! Bonus, it has the most intense, sweet smell (winning awards for it's scent)

Using a 100mm fixed focus lens, stopped down to f/4, enabled me to blur the background into a symphony of sorbet colors and a yummy pastel color palette

Color Inspiration - Old Fashioned Rose

Color Inspiration from our new rose garden. Can't you just smell this David Austin old fashioned rose?

I accidentally over-exposed this shot, but ended up liking the result - soft, warm pinks, greens and taupe all on the Warm, Light Earthone color wheel (from Eye For Color)

Color Inspiration - Pink African Daisy

The color combo in this photo is so unique - adding a bit of grey-blue to the traditional complement of purple and gold, I just had to create a color swatch - hope you enjoy!

And then there's Hot Pink

I just bought this new skirt

Think I'll wear it with this scarf

And these earrings


Nothing subtle here!

This Rugosa Rose bloomed just in time to celebrate pink. So heavenly fragrant, you can smell it in neighboring yards. I steep a handful of petals in vodka with a vanilla bean and a few cloves to make Rose Liqueur.

Still time to play along with Color Week! Visit Lisa for a list of sites to visit.
