The Yellow Rose

Posted on 13 August 2007

A yellow rose in Fitzgerald’s Park in Cork. I made this photo a few weeks back and it had just rained, leaving nice little droplets of water on the delicate petals of the flower.

    Thanks Trostan, I did briefly but I was working late on this image and so tired that doing anything else was out of the question! I still like how it turned out, especially as the rose is facing into the space on the right.

    Lovely colours. Have you thought about cropping tightly around the yellow rose ?

  • Will says:

    I love the water droplets; I’m not used to seeing this much color in your work. Brilliant. I love th b&w stuff too however…

  • Thanks Will! I love b/w, but I’m fond of colour too. Usually I reserve b/w for my street shots though, and this flower was crying out to be photographed. Today’s photo is back to b/w street, so I hope you like it.

    This picture is breathtaking!
    I was looking thru your pictures (WP Blogroll) and was not expecting
    such brilliant magnificence!
    May I share it in an email to some of my gardening friends?
    Thanks! Linda

  • Linda – sure, but instead of attaching the image to an email, point them here, at http://inphotos.org/the-yellow-rose/ where they can leave them own comments if they like. Glad you like the photo!

  • A. Florists says:

    Definitely don’t need to crop this picture. It’s the background flower that brings into focus the yellow rose and puts it into perspective. Very simple and beautiful

  • Linda Martin-Peoples says:

    Oh I definitely agree with A. Florists…I wouldn’t crop either…
    but if you just had to…maybe a bit off of the right side…(actually I like the rose being off-center).

  • Bobbie Hoppe says:

    I think you might look at that again. The leaves are not rose leaves but Begonias. I think the picture is of a beautiful yellow Begonia.Anyway, it’s a beautiful photo.
