Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, old Time is still a-flying. And this same flower that smiles today, tomorrow will be dying.

This, that and the other thing 
A lovely image. Sue will like this.
I think of her every time I post a photo like this. 🙂
beautiful even in decay…
I agree. Thanks, Wilma. Hope all’s well with you and yours.
What a world of texture. It looks so delicate, so fragile, yet still so elegant and refined.
Beautiful in both life and death.
Beautifully shot
Thanks, Sarah. Dying and dead flowers and other plants can have such a beauty.
Good heavens, my father used to say that whenever he saw the first rose of the season. Hadn’t thought of that in years!
🙂 Glad to bring back good memories, Ally.
I love the textures and contours of this, Janet. It looks like it’s been antiqued.
And I didn’t do anything special to the photo. 🙂
😄
Lovely and sad
But it had a lovely life and still gave pleasure while dying. Can’t ask for more than that.
A poignant photo!
But still lovely.
