This is from one of Cathi's rose bushes in the back yard.
I like the way roses smell, but rose bushes seem to grab at me!
Thus, they are Cathi's roses...

I almost forgot about PAD for the day!
Our work let out early for the holiday weekend and the recliner was calling when I arrived home.
So I went out a little while ago for this shot. Our back yard is surrounded on all sides by shrubs
and trees and the late afternoon light doesn't reach in very well. I had to boost the brightness and
contrast in PS on this shot. I thought about making it B/W, but I liked the soft pastel color of the lavender.
