Description
Captured 7/2/08, very early in the morning, within walking distance of my sometimes hospitable habitat.
Both photos are of the same flower, but from different angles/POVs.
Although I've snapped several hundred rose pictures in my time, the red variety has always been the bane of my photographic existence, not depicting on screen the contrasts and textures I see when first encountering the flower. So this is the first time I was able to catch one that didn't turn out to be an indistinguishable and/or inexplicable red blob on the monitor. This rose was truly red, and not a dark pink. Of course, a little encouragement from Photoshop didn't hurt to brighten up and bring out the contrast in this beauty.
Thankx for the peek, and have a totally together Tuesday.

Very pretty... wishing you a totally together Tuesday as well LOL !!
This beauty is so full it could masquerade as a Geranium! I think the color turned out great!
You did succeed on the color. The white edges are a winner.
Wow Harry. This is realy a beautyful color and love the detailed veins on the petals what looks so much better on full size. 85 roses!! Keep on snapping I want to see the 100th and more.
You have done well, the top shot is my pick of the two, Excellent
very lovely red too. check your color on camera? may be off a little. just got to read about how to fix it might be worth it
jock500: I've had this red rose problem with all four of my cameras. All other items colored red come out fine.
Beautiful collage Harry. I really like how you can see the detail in the petals.
Just gorgeous, Harry. Lovely!
roses are always great subjects !
A red rose, my favorite!!
You did very well....:) great job...
beautiful rose...
Absolutely stunning captures Harry. Red is rather difficult to capture but you did it so well. The petals have a velvety look to them. I bet the smell is so sweet too! Great work. :)
You did well Harry, it has excellent clarity and texture and a wide variety of reds to be seen depending on the angle of the light. Very sharp too.
Lovely shots, Harry, very lovely! The sunlight and pov has really captured the texture and the "velvety' appearance!
Very arttractive shots!
VERY VERY PRETTY
