I was out taking a photo of Crested Moss and a butterfly flew up and landed on the bloom I was photographing. I got about 20 shots of this butterfly's passionate visit with Mr. Napoleon. After he left I stuck my nose in the bloom to smell that wonderful sweet perfume. Talk about being in the right place at the right time...!

I would have to blow that first picture up into poster size and hang it on my wall to encourage me through the winter. MAN! You could wait a lifetime to get a shot like that! My luck it would come out blurry!

I love the darker colored roses so much, and you have some beauties.

What an unusual rose that Alain Blanchard is. I really like it.

I will have to add at least 2 or 3 more to my wish list after these pictures!!

TFS,
Betty
