October 3rd

This is supposed to represent the last rose of summer.... which I know we're quickly approaching. I made the background black. I seem to be really liking that effect and it seems appropriate for the last rose. I'm just trying to get used to photoshop and what it does...
here's a link to the original that Yvonne mentioned in the comments http://www.pbase.com/image/34562662

Panasonic DMC-FZ1
1/60s f/2.8 at 10.8mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

Tis the last rose of summer
Left blooming alone;
All her lovely companions are faded & gone.
by Thomas Moore.

Good to try new stuff ... this is nice! I like the original as well.

Hey, some magic happening here! When I wrote the previous message the background to
the rose was a soft mauve - which i think I prefer - but I suppose black signifies doom and is quite apt.

Stunning photo Lori! Doesn't one feel sad when you know the roses are almost
finished their season. We're lucky, our spring season is about to begin!
