Last blooms of autumn

The last blooms of my roses are hanging onto the bushes, and giving me colour in my garden that is bedding down for the winter.  Soon the blooms and leaves will fall and it will be time for pruning again, but until then I can enjoy these last rays of autumn sunshine.

I hope over the weekend you find time to spend with those you love, and doing what you love to do.
and remember.........
You will find as you look back upon your life 
that the moments when you have truly lived 
are the moments when you have done things 
in the spirit of love.

 As is illustrated in the first photo above, even as the petals fade and fall there is still beauty.

 I love this white rose - it is the Iceberg variety - I never tire of photographing its beauty.

  1. Hi Jill. On a cold and dreary morninh here in Cape Town I came upon these beautful images and simply adore them. The first one on the left is stunning. I am new to blogging. I have visited Darwin many moons ago but am not sure where Bunbury is. These beautiful bloom makes me long for spring...
