This Rose is called "Betty Boop", and won the Rose Competition at the Western Washington State Fair in 2003... I'd love to have a whole bush of these!
"I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille!" I love this rose, although I feel a certain unease in doing such a close-up; I almost feel like I'm invading it's privacy or something. Also, I can't decide if it's a horizontal image, or a vertical one. If you buy this print, feel free to hang it either way! :D
This is one of those images... I had it on my computer as a 'Desktop Image" and everytime I turned on my monitor, I could see this rose appearing like a sun. I should figure out a way to make these available as Desktop Images; but in the meantime, you can turn off your monitor right now, and then turn it back on to see the effect for yourself. NOTE: this will only work on a CRT, not on a LCD screen... sorry!
