[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This rose stands for beauty, the beauty that is part of love and comes with peace and happiness. It accompanies my prayer for the people in the Middle East, especially for the ones that suffered so badly in the one-month war which ended only yesterday. May the truce be secure so that the people in this region may re-build their lives - in peace.

Thank you for stopping by.

Hz.Mohammed is the symbol of İslam
and islam is the symbol of peace...

Hi Cordelia,

Thanks for the good idea to let us pray for peace, I'm with you and all this poor people in these days. I can't understand why there must be war! Hoping, everything will come better, thanks for this post, bye

Hi Cordelia,
For some reason I very seldom photograph flowers... Maybe because others do it so much better..!
This is very fine macro work, where you capture colours & details to my eyes delight...
Very well composed too, and the lighting is good in enhancing the different shades of red!
Greetings,
Pablo -

wonderful!love your ideas! very creative!
tfs

I do not pray. But I hope That They see that war brings on winners only casualties.
To stop the fight we must say this was enough now we only look forward. There is no other way than do it together and have equal share in all.
The rose is a beauty and hope as beautiful as the piece is.

Hello Cordelia
The composition and sharpness are excellent and so is the POV..Fantastic how you show this Rose! I agree with Pablo's remark

Hi Cordelia,
This is an excellent photo, I like this thigh cropping with the softness of the rose and the colors. I hope your prayer will be listened too we don't need no war.

Good morning Cordelia
This is an excellent composition. The colours are superb and it is wonderfully hsarp with a great dof, which is difficult in a macro like this. Very well done, indeed!

Make peace no war.
The only problem is that the people who realy should see this and think about this , will not see it.
I agree with you 100% Cordelia. Great idea and a wonderfull rose. Bye bye

An idea has been composed nicely with fine details and good control of light. Folds of patel are interesting to watch.

Thanks for sharing an idea - which might......

hi cordelia,
Du sprichst ja perfekt deutsch!! woher kommt das? lernt man so gut deutsch in der schule? nein oder?
Daher kann ich deine fotos in der deutschen sprache kommentieren.
Hier sieht man viele viele macros von blumen und insekten und und...ich habe bis jetzt bewußt vermieden diese zu kommentieren ABER deines gefällt mir!! nicht weil du deutsch sprichst sondern weil du mit deinem text etwas erreichen willst! Ich bin für freiheit und friede! daher kommentiere ich deine wunderschöne blume!!
PEACE
