Named after the famous glass sculptor, Dale Chihuly.  Shot on a bright, sunny afternoon using ambient light from the window.  These are some of the most photogenic roses I grow.

Very pretty, and always nicely presented!

Absolutely beautiful.  Makes me want to go out and buy some rose bushes!

Thanks, Jeanne.  You'll make it just in time if you start tomorrow!  I don't know what the weather's like up there but, I'd venture to say that if you wait too much longer, the rose planting season will be over until late fall.

Bottom one the best, there is a lovely velvetiness, in the petals that is not there in the rest.

Ta!  Much appreciated.

Very, very nice!

Beautiful.  Just beautiful.

I will be buying roses this year, but it will be later than you that I will be planting.  We are expecting snow over the weekend!   ugggg

 Think I have to agree with Summicron. Photographically, #4 is the better. However I personally prefer #3. I find that 90 degree angle formed by the two lower petals in #4 to be less appealing than the bright yellow bottom of #3. Very good job, and a lovely rose.
