Golden Houron the first
summer evening
The sun lowon the horizon
the air so mildand mellow,
filled with rose fragrance
and then churchbells start calling
for Evensong

I did, I did! And it was so refreshing!
I had walked down from the Mölker Bastei (previous post) to visit "my" rose garden.
Moannie,
ReplyDeleteit was just around 6pm and the sun was low. I love the delicate transillumination of the rose leaves when photographed against the light at this time of day. The light is soft and warm.
Gorgeous rose, gorgeous light. Ahh, Evensong would be more blessed with these beautiful roses.
ReplyDeleteOh, oh, oh...these take my breath away!!! I ADORE orange roses!!! So gorgeous...and captured by Merisi's camera and paired with her glorious flair for the poetic?? Who could ask for anything more!! ~Janine XO
ReplyDeleteThe color here is just gorgeous. This is my first visit to your blog. I had intended to stop and say hello before moving on. I, instead started going through your older posts and stayed far longer than I planned/ I really love what I found here. I'll be back as often as I can. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary
