adorazione del fiore

red rose detail - image by LeAnn, my garden,
It's that time of year.  A warm sun greets us each morning and new leaves are flourishing on the roses we pruned back a few months ago.  I know it won't be long until my garden is in full bloom. 

I never tire of photographing these miraculous beauties nature so generously bestows upon me.  It seems that for every moment I spend tending to my garden, I am rewarded a thousand times over.
