Rosey Macro Monday

City Park was very lively in February but I did find a few pretty roses. They looked even brighter against the winter dull.

Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. :) MM started on Sept 29, 2008 - THANX to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

Not sure what these are, some sort of cocoons?

Rosey Macro Monday

As much as I love, love, love, snow, I really am ready for it to go, go, go. :0) So until the ground is no longer white, maybe I should keep flowers around continually.

We're so lucky that there are treatments for every kind of cancer!  While 8 million Americans have been diagnosed, 3 million are considered cured!

Even the things most worth having, have thorns to dissuade you from grabbing them.

Nip it

I am surprised to see that my roses are still putting on buds!

Not only putting on buds, but also blooming!  This seems unusual to me, although this is the first year we've had roses in Wisconsin.

Many hopefully buds - I have this feeling they are going to get nipped my frost!

I will miss the blooms of summer, good thing I took a few photos to remind me during our white out.

Hanging onto summer

I've already had enough of winter, can spring start today? lol

Dead but still lovely
