…or one of the last ones, anyway. There are still a few unopened buds. I am so glad my roses keep blooming so long, especially when I am not very attentive to them.
You can find more Wordless Wednesday pictures, or link to your own, here and here.
Edited to add: A few people asked whether the water droplets were sprayed on or natural. They were natural. It had rained the whole day before. and I think that plus the natural morning dew made it more “dewy” than usual. I noticed it after getting home from taking my son to school. It was opened just the right amount (in fact, later the same day the outer petals looked floppy) and I knew I had to capture that moment of beauty. Thanks for all the kind comments!!
