The heck with the stereotypes

I have found the other day a rosebush from an old local variety that has a very strong and rich aroma. When I returned home with one rose, Hive account@traisto asked me to bring some more, when I go to the same place again, in order to prepare rosewater. And so it happened. A few days later I was at the same spot and I grabbed a few roses to take them with me. But before I deliver them to the Herb Lady of the house, I took my camera and had some fun with them!

When I picked them up I was a bit clumsy but since they were about to become rosewater I didn't think that it matters. So when I took them out of my bag they were practically a bunch of rose petals, all mixed up and messy. But that didn't bother me at all! My trustworthy macro lens can transform and (hopefully) beautify any messy reality :)

I took those shots quite a few days ago but when I finished the shooting they looked to me a bit girly and I left them aside. But today I thought the heck with the stereotypes, I'll post them anyway :)

After all it is Sunday and Hive account@c0ff33a with his #SublimeSunday tag gives me the perfect excuse

to post something a bit different, wacky, crazy or just whatever takes your fancy

and I might just do so :)

And for the finale of this post, a shot before I brutally cut the roses and take them apart! Of course it is a #beautifulsunday hosted by Hive account@ace108 and #alwaysaflower :)

Have a nice Sunday!
