Penny I forgot to ask wot anniversary did you just celebrate? Getting roses my guess would be the 2nd anniversary:-)

thanks Jano, Christakis (the long exposure is because I wanted a small aperture to get the flower mostly in focus) and aam (it's pretty hard to do a macro of a big city so I compromised by trying to make the flower look big).

Honestly Penny, this is one of the best I've seen from you. Good work! Oh, and it's a big departure from the usual NY streets ;)

Thanks Angioman, Troy and dt. It took many many many tries to get one I liked.

Very nice. Red is so difficult and you did it well. ~dtallakson

This is very beautiful Penny. It has a red velvet look.

Great job with the red sat - not easy to do. Despite the small aperture you pulled off a very sharp image! Angioman
