There is beauty all around me!

Anyone who knows me, knows how much I love roses! I have two rose tattoos, rose patterns on most of my clothing, rose decorations throughout my house, and there are even roses in my front yard.

It's that time of year again, allergy season... It's also blooming season, and that includes roses! This photo was taken from one of the rose bushes in my front yard. I make it a point to stop and "smell the roses" everyday... and sometimes photograph them as well!

Too bad my MacBook doesn't have a scratch and sniff option.
