  3. The roses are exquisite in that soft pink and so gracefully adorning the wall and the wrought iron fence.

    Have a wonderful weekend, mon amie!

  5. A perfect cascade. I imagine the roses getting thicker and thicker, then raining onto the ground.

    Gorgeous.

    We had 2 rose bushes in our yard where I grew up. No one paid any attention to them or tended to them, yet they always produced the largest, most amazing smelling roses I've ever experienced.

  14. On est vraiment gâtés cette année, le beau temps est propice aux roses. Je les aime grimpantes et généreuses comme celle du dessus, un peu chiffonées et faisant roses anciennes comme celle du dessus et aussi parfumées. Celel du dessus était-elle parfumée ?

  15. I love roses and these are beautiful. The second photo with the iron fence contrasting with the soft pink and delicacy of the roses is terrific.

    I think your title is The Season of Roses but can't say for sure since I don't read French. I took one year of Spanish in High school about 60 years ago and all the languages are similar - French, Spanish, Latin.

    I like the photography very much.

    What is the name of your camera?

    I like the way it registers the colors.

  23. I love roses, too, but it is a month too early for roses in Hartford. Rose Weekend at Elizabeth Park is June 17 - 19 this year.

    Very lovely roses.
    My brother-in-law just got back from a trip to Versailles and Paris. One of his photos had the Bernar Venet sculpture and I said I saw it before he did! ha!
