Well, I couldn't resist. I took this photo today, my theme is a contribution to Bulgarian rose oil.

Rose-lovers will recognize that this is not the original Rosa Damascena, from which the rose oil is extracted, but it doesn't bloom at this time of the year, and it is not the type which is sold at flower shops. If you visit Bulgaria in spring, you may as well visit the Valley of Roses and the Rose Festival which takes place in the region of Kazanlak.

Bulgarian rose oil is one of the most famous in the world nowadays. Who knows, probably your perfume also has a drop of it :)

Yes welcome to the stamp club Evgenia.. very exclusive club too. ha ha.

Im sure these stamps will be priceless one day.. specially yours with the beautiful Rosa Damascena Rose..I do know rose oil is extremely expensive.. I used to sell Aromatherapy oils, among other things in my business.

Hello Evgenia,

Beautiful visual, I liked his text, I didn't know about that of the roses. It should be wonderful to visit this Valley and the Festival of the Roses, it is charming.
Welcome to the club of the stamp.
Congratulations

Hi Evgenia, I am not familiar with Bulgarian rose oil. Thanks to your Note, I now know. This is well presented, the pink is subtle on the dark b/g, and DOF is good. Greetings! Danilo

Hi Evgenia,
great idea! original one! Just love it! Perfect. TFS

All the best,
Ioana

Oh Evgenia this is so pretty - the rose I mean. And presenting it as a stamp is awesome. Very well done.
And your notes are so interesting too. TFS
Janice

That is a very cool idea to make stamp out of the photo! The flower is pretty though a little on a darker side.
