Description
The other day as I wandered around my garden, camera in hand, I found this rose. It had poured the night before, and everything was soggy and wet. The roses got a beating, but this one caught my eye. Even after its brutal thrashing, it still has a quiet beauty. These are two shots stitched together.

Excellent macro capture/manip, this rose looks marvellous this way, I love the red tones of it, too, like a flower bleeding or something...

I like the way you have done this Marilyn, two shots, one head one one slightly side on and you did a great job of stitching. I had to study it quite a bit. Excellent work. Bravo!!!!!

The thing keeps licking me like a Labrador. I first thought it was an Iris.
Very neat. 5+.
Strawberry color-like textures in this splendiferous macro, Marilyn!
Reminds me of waterspots on velvet; very beautiful capture!
