Things I Love (Day 13)

Sitting under the porch during a summer storm
Water droplets on rose petals
The smell of rain

(Day 13)

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)

He gave me a rose

faded now
but the memory lasts
forever
