Solitary Rose


It's Mid-November, but I still found a single rose on a walk these days  - unbelievable, isn't it?

As I liked the brown tones in the photo, I added two layers of Kim Klassen's free texture "Phoebe" (multiply at 100 % and soft light at 65 %) to emphasize those. Now I'll hop over to Kim's Café to link this up to today's Texture Tuesday.

Have a wonderful day!

    What a lovely rose!!!
    Don't you think we are going to pay for all this mild weather by having a really cold winter?

    beautiful, Rosie! Simply beautiful!

    I still had roses blooming - all the way till Halloween and, then, it snowed and that was that!

    It's a very happy thing to see yours!

    It's so pretty! I had one last rose in my yard and hubby brought it in for me. I didn't even know it was there.
