Show Biz Deadhead
Day 167

My Show Biz rose does pretty well in the cold.
There are still some buds opening: http://www.pbase.com/image/35308561

This needs deadheading (obviously) but I kind of like the spent blossom heads -- they're pretty in their own way.


other sizes: small medium original auto

And now you have some lovely hips.

Excellent composition, Carmen.

Interesting macro. Nice picture.

I agree. I love old flower tops too. It's all part of nature's cycle.

Absolutely lovely in their own way. How would it be to feature the "sepia" ones behind them. They look interesting, too.

Well done, this is an excellent photo.

This is pretty. I have ShowBiz also, but I have never noticed the pods.

rose hips..tea maybe?

Well, you know me.. i prefer the dead, left-behind husks, leaves, and seeds to the blossom. The star shape is fraught with texture and character

I agree. These husks have quite a visual appeal for all their texture, and shape. Nice seasonal image, reflective of the flower's life cycle.

Very interesting. Maybe not as colorful but just as fascinating as the blossoms.
