"A pink rose leans into the sun’s warm gleam,
Its petals glowing like a soft‑lit dream.
Golden rays gather where the blossoms unfold,
Warming each curve in a tender hold.
In quiet splendour the rose feels alive,
Drinking in daylight to bloom and thrive."
A poetic offering written by your humble photographer (2026).
It may be autumn where I live, but at the moment we are enjoying the last few weeks of what has been an Indian summer. I took a stroll in the beautiful, warm sunshine today, and I walked past this rose bush covered in beautiful bright pink, sweetly fragrant, rose blooms, which is thriving and sending forth new blooms in the original garden of a stylish 1930s Art Deco clinker brick villa. Above them all, reaching for the blue sky, and bathed in autumn sunshine a single vibrant pink bloom crowned the bush. It was too beautiful not to photograph. I do not know the variety of rose, other than it is English and the bush is quite old.
There may be much going on in the world today that we may not like or be happy about, but just remember that there is still beauty and happiness to be found, in the simplest of pleasures.
“Not all love stories start with roses. Some start with petunias too!” - Satabdi Panda (Indian writer).
The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" the 4th of July is "fill the drame with one flower". It is deep winter where I live at present, so flowers of any kind are somewhat of a rarity, so for this theme, I have resorted to an image from my archive. Luckily for me, we had an Indian summer this year, which bled into autumn, which afforded some fine days and pretty sunshine as well as above average temperatures. At the time I took this photo of a white petunia, I still had one pot of profusely flowering petunias in my garden. It’s not easy to capture white, which can sometimes blow out. However, I don’t think I’ve done too badly here. I hope you like my choice for this week’s theme, and that it makes you smile!
Today the day started out rainy and overcast, but by mid afternoon the sun broke through sporadically through the clouds, giving a lovely, mildly warm afternoon. With the change in weather, I decided to go out with my camera.
On my exploration, I came across this vibrant pink rosebud basking in the sun.
