Sorry about your laptop problem Lea....it can be SO annoying. But...this picture is so gorgeous....OHHHH, one of my favorites so far. Thank you for posting such beautiful subjects.

joy: I lost in wonder at its beauty: the rose exudes fragrance and its gold or yellow color in the center with the pink lace around the petals glows in peace. Words cannot match that moment though.
