I’m sitting out on the patio as I write this. It’s been the first really hot day of the season, 94 degrees. The sun has retreated now and the breeze refreshes. I glanced up and saw this scene across the garden, and couldn’t resist taking a photo. In my mind’s eye, it is a painting.
Photo taken with iPhone 4s, using ArtistaOil app.

Thanks David. Just a dab of ArtistaOil. I looked back at the untouched version, and it is almost the same.

Indeed! I have that small bush that this rose is on, and then a large one next to it that climbs on the fence. Really an enjoyment to look out and see.

I really like that beautiful deep pink against the bluey-charcoal background – sooo dramatic.
