Red Rose + Croton Plant

January Zelene 6:13 PM Close Up Shots , Flower 101 , Monday Mellow Yellows , Ruby Tuesday 2 , Today's Flower 13 comments

I bought these flowers yesterday from a flower peddler outside the church after attending an early morning mass.

I thought of taking close-up shots of the roses. I did a lot of experiments, looking for a pretty background. Later on I settled with this picture.

A red rose against the yellow and green leaves of croton plants.The color combination is quite pretty right?

Later in the afternoon, these flowers were brought to our angel's resting place.
