Birmingham Botanical Gardens

Gary and I went to the Botanical Gardens on one of our recent outings. We were working on some of our macro skills, so the shots were all pretty close.

Valentine's Day Red 2

Eight days on, and some of the Valentine's Day roses are still hanging in there.

Another blossom on the same flower stalk as the other day.  Testing out my old Sony A100, up close.

52 Photos Project

The challenge this week at 52 Photos Project is:

This was the prettiest rose in the Birmingham Botanical Gardens a little over a week ago.
