more winter

this is the rose bush seen earlier infront of yellow beech tree. It has been frosted then thawed, a beautiful skin like quality....

winter shows itself

it is very unusual for this rose to bloom late (I thought the earlier last fling was the last); but this one flower then got caught by the frost - frozen raindrops then frost crystals.

autumn

another september rose

found in Wells, Somerset.

the blooms and the fruit and the nesting snail on a damp day

last fling

the last late fling of a very May/June rose.

late estuary roses

the roses in the estuary come flush with September buds alongside the rosehips.

soft rose

the soft rose in the garden is filled with buds and blooms.

more rosa canina

I continue to watch this particular branch of this particular dog rose bush
