I never seem to find flowers as beautiful as the ones you seem to photograph–they are always spectacular. Love the analogy of the jewels in the crown of life.
May your week be crowned with joy,

That is so beautiful G, thank you and I hope you also have a wonderful week. Take care.
Georgianna says
Thank you very much, everyone!
Yes, Dianne, they are David Austin roses, I'm obsessed with them. How lovely that you call your daughters your jewels. I'm sure they are just that!
Debi, Thank you. We actually have limited sun in our garden so I was careful to choose roses that were repeat bloomers to make the most of the location. I'm very happy with them and plan to do a post on the different varieties I have. I photograph every single bloom, I think!
Have a wonderful week, all! xo
Kelli says
Those are just lovely. How lucky you have them blooming in your garden!
I really need to start a rose garden…

Bonjour Georgianna. Those are beautiful, so delicate and soft in colour. Sorry I missed the post about your dad, the shots of the irises are abstolutely stunning, I'm sure he would have loved them. I hope you have a good week. Love from London, Carole xo

Yes, would we ever have that quiet and that giggle sitting in serious and inconsequential chatter!!! That would be dreamy! This crown sets my faerytale heart dreaming, must aim to get that one soon!!!! I want that right on my art desk to remind me of the joy that you are and what princesses can accomplish. Love and joy to you from Amy
