Roses
I was inspired to photograph my brother’s incredible rose bush. It blooms in gorgeous shades of purple/pink. Yeah, fuchsia. It had just rained, so there are some raindrops still resting on the petals.
Beautiful! We have 3 main colors of roses at our place; Salmon pink, a reddishpink, and then a fuschia-almost glow-in-the-dark color. Those are SO hard to get a pic of with my PowershotA530. It absolutely cannot be sunny. I've tired every setting on the camera and barely came out with some good ones. I'll have to share them sometime. Oh wait, I guess I can't cause I don't have a blog. But I could share them on my LJ with people. Oh, I know, I'll put them on my photography website! Duh! ;) Here's the link to that site; http://joyfulreflectionsphotography.shutterfly.com/

"We tend to scoff at the beliefs of the ancients. But we can't scoff at them personally, to their faces, and this is what annoys me."
"Probably the earliest flyswatters were nothing more than some sort of striking surface attached to the end of a long stick."
"If you ever fall off the Sears Tower, just go real limp, because maybe you'll look like a dummy and people will try to catch you because, hey, free dummy."
"Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny."
"If you're robbing a bank and your pants fall down, I think it's okay to laugh and to let the hostages laugh too because, come on, life is funny."
