Greetings friends!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!Merry
Perhaps now, a blizzard is raging behind the wake, a severe frost, or, as at this second, I hear a torrential downpour pouring down on New Year's Eve, but this cannot take away the good mood and feel the warmth that comes from the postage stamps from the series " Flowers-Roses ", released on the island of Cuba in 1979.
On a postage stamp with a face value of 2 Cuban Centavos, we see a rose called Rosa centifolia.
To be honest, I am not a great specialist in the field of cultivation and selection of roses, but I have always enjoyed photographing them.
The look of these flowers is fantastic, this is what can give an impetus for further creativity.
With these photographs and some minor corrections, I want to pay tribute to the artist who depicted roses on this postage stamp.
Our planet has changed over the past couple of years, not for the better, I would like to hope that in 2022 it will smell like roses, not antiseptics.
Let's take a look at this postage stamp.

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
