BEARDED BABY

"Bearded Baby" (10-2-15 032v2) is not from this year's rose garden profusion, but from last fall's crop. I'm always as drawn to these little, poorly developed buds/blooms as to the big, florid ones. But in the masses of roses we have opening, many of them huge, it's hard to see much less get good pix of these little ones. I have tried, using my walking stick to hold the larger ones aside while balancing without it, and leaning forward among the bushes as much as I can. Quite a challenge and so far this year not successful. So when I came across this little face I'd forgotten about I was delighted. Perked the sad mood I woke in, right up (at least for now).
