Yup. I know this one. LOL I now have loppers 3 feet long to prune mine. I actually got stabbed in the chest by a rose one year and ended up having minor surgery when it got infected and absessed. Blasted roses...LOL
Cute, I think I lost that battle a few times myself :o)
Ouch yuk and great shot!! May you have gorgeous blooms!!
Nice bling lol! Hardy garden gloves are a good protection for this kind of work, but no doubt you will already have something like that, but didn't come out prepared tut-tut!.
ahh blood (fainted) :o)..you should know better than to fight with roses you will never win .if that rock on your finger had caught the sun i`d of been blinded now .great action shot mariyn :o) mick
Ouch! Medic.... That must hurt. Aloha
Auchhhh :-)
Wear gardening gloves...heehee! I know, you won't wear them, Marilyn. Hey, your pruning shears has a nice little face on it. Like a little monster chomping away at the stems.
OUCH! I hear they feel bad and send you gorgeous flowers later.
yep very ouch! where are your garden gloves young lady?
I know EXACTLY how it is!! And wearing gloves is so hard, cuts one off from nature!
Photostar has spotted the face, I think it looks like Pac-Man, the chommping things in the early computer games. That ring on your pinky looks a bit tight Marilyn, the other one looks gorgeous, I wonder what stone it is? Saphire maybe? I have just purchased some Saphires on eBay, I am going to polish them for making jewelry. A small dab of iodine keep the germs out of that scratch. Excellent one handed capture. Bravo!!!!!
they always do... great photograph.
Nice face on the tool! :) I always wear leather gloves. I'm a wuss.

Oh Dear Marilyn, make sure you bathe those scratches in antiseptic you cannot be too careful - poor you hugs Jane xx
look like war here. hope you win too. this is a good shot of what you have to go thought
Those hands look like mine do after a day at work. You better take care of them. We still need more of your pictures.
Oooh, I missed this one, but AH...here it is. Yeah, pruning roses is definitely a painful pursuit! It always looks so good when done though! OUCH. The snipper-thingies (I never know what to call garden tools) are captured wonderfully, especially since the cutting blades look a bit like a dragon or some other quasi-reptilian creature! I love that bit, as well as the down and dirty nature of...well...working close to soil! It's a refreshing feeling I know...even though I was always the one getting down and dirty, looking for woodlice and slugs, rather than pruning things back. But that's just me...I'm weird like that.
