TODAY'S FLOWERS - Summer Roses


We all strive towards the light. I think these roses at the height
of their bloom have reached the impossible in this lifetime.

In the pink of unconditional love,


the white of purity


and the golden light of hope.

  2. Really like the shot of the white one. Perfectly exposed. It is funny your posting summer roses when we just shut down the rose garden for the season this week.

  7. I keep forgetting that it is summer there! Surprisingly we are having a cool December. We are actually wearing long sleeves and long pants. Normally we are wearing shorts and running the air-conditioning. So lovely to see some colors even just through photos. Hope you are taking care of yourself while taking care of loved ones. Tsup!

  11. A lovely post Arija, those roses are fabulous. I'm sorry you've had trouble with the new logo. I'm afraid I'm not much help as I am not sure why this is so. I downloaded it myself without any difficulty but then on other occasions, not lately fortunately, I have had similar problems with other memes. Hopefully you will be able to download it eventually. Would you like me to mention this to Luiz?

  17. Hi Arija! I love the way you add your poetical words to the wonderful roses. And I saw your other photos too. A pity that you have a pesticide spraying neighbour. I hope you are okay? I wish you a blessed Christmas and a lot of strength to face the new year.
