Iceberg Roses - Close-up

This is a close-up of the Iceberg Roses. They are so little and delicate and yet produce so many. The trash is still not running regularly, or should I say once since the storm. It is currently very difficult for the garbage trucks to get to the landfill. There are a number of large garbage containers that have been placed throughout the community, but unless you have a truck it is difficult to get your garbage can to the bins. When I walked out of my home I noticed that my garbage can and many of my neighbors up and down the street were missing. A little later I walked out and my empty garbage can was back in front of my house. A kind neighbor passed down the street and gathered garbage cans in the back of his truck and took them to the big dumpster, emptied them and returned them to our yards. It was a wonderful suprise and greatly appreciated!

It's wonderful how people cooperate. I love these macros. It makes the flowers look like totally different somewhat alien lifeforms.

Lovely white colour and so much detail in this close up.
Very nice work.

This is the whitest rose I've ever seen. I can see why you're so proud of these little beauties. And some people will always get to work right away and help others in times of need. It's what makes this country great and your daily commentaries are bringing that positive note to the forefront.

Lovely macro! Love all the detail in the center of the roses! And the little visitor on the one petal! Nice capture of the white petals.
