variation on a rose

rain finally hit today... yay - we've needed it. however, it sorely messed with getting out. so i resorted to using the rose that is still hanging on on the rose bush out front...which i can't believe. it's survived our continued hot weather over a week now daring to wither not...

i wondered if i could get it to look like an abstract painting... don't know if it's worked, but again, one needs to try out new ideas and i like the fact that editing is my friend. i'm only as creative as my own limitations will allow me to be, right? jeesh... that's a might too profound for a monday...

happy new week all....
