We Are Not Real If We Dont Appreciate All Beauty




Rose tea that I try to enjoy as often...I always have it in this huge glass and would see how they surface to the brim and gradually lose their color...sometimes, some petals float around reminding me of a beautiful scene from the movie 'Perfume-story of a murderer' where a woman's body is kept afloat in a huge glass tumbler filled with water. The movie haunts yoo crazy.

Very beautiful; being underwater really gives these roses a great effect. The shot with bubbles makes it look like they are sealed in a clear amber!

I really like the pictures! I am struck by how they are fading rose petals. Oh and the movie "El Perfume" is great!

well, I won't be seeing that movie! Still I think your photos are wonderfully mysterious and roses in tea is amongst my favorite. I have taken to a mix of Earl gray, wild roses from our woods, a scrap or two of orange skin, one crushed cardamon seed steeped lately. Ummmm
