Roses

It is mid October in Finland, it’s dark, cold and windy this time of the year. Usually the roses do not bloom, but I took photos of these roses in my garden this morning.

Sadunomainen / Fairy- tale

I had to think about this one. Two of the pictures not Macros but  – something fairy-tale like is in them – or movie so I had to include them just for the topic

The main photo is as Macro as can be – it is a very close up of a lichen ( jäkälä) only thing I’ve done is enhanced the colors
