Last Saturday, my Mum & I went to visit Oakhill Gallery in Mornington to see the "Seasons" exhibition in which she had 6 paintings (she has sold 4).
Behind the art gallery are the Mornington Botanical Rose Gardens which include hundreds of rose bushes. As roses are my favourite flowers, I was in awe of the size of these gardens, as well as the roses in it. I was particularly thrilled to find these beautiful Delbard French Roses (Painter's Collection), inspired by the great impressionist painters.
It was rather windy, so it was difficult to clearly macro these beautiful blooms.

What unusual roses, beautifully photographed.
Despite the wind and sun you have still captured their beauty Liz.
My gosh how beautiful. I have never seen that kind of two colored roses.
Oh yes, you have summer.
Wonderful roses.
