Description
My father loved growing roses in his garden and these were not just ordinary roses. He would ship in the bulbs for the rose bushes from a sources he never told me about and he would care for all the roses, like they were his own dear children.
Here is a picture of one of his finest roses with great resolution and detail. What is even more interesting is that four other roses are getting ready to bloom and form around the one rose that has bloomed in perfection up against great odds. Given our last name is Montague, I thought the verse from Shakespere's "Romeo and Juliet" was appropriate, when Juliet says; "Montague, a rose by any other name would spell as sweet".
If you are a woman seeing this rose; this should be a great photo to hang in your home, your kitchen or any place where you want beauty and happiness to bloom in your life: A place where love can find you and lift you up. Have some gift cards made and send them out to the people you love the most for any special occasion .
If you are man and have a woman in your life who loves to receive roses, buy and give her 12 cards, so she has a dozen perfect roses to celebrate her life with you while you tell her how much you love her. The 12 cards will last much longer than the real thing for her to remember forever!
The rose captured in this photo is so perfect looking, it looks unreal doesn't it? All the more reason why I'm using the photograph from my library of original photos. I think woman would greatly appreciate the perfection of this beautiful creation made by nature. This is certainly worthy of the beauty of any woman, who loves to surround herself with beautiful art.

As an artist and photographer, Kevin has captured this image of a red rose and its true spirit, passion and beauty! Just gazing on this amazingly creative photo, brings love, hope and peace in my soul. The small rosebud symbolizes a soul of hope and renewal; the rose bud which appears frosted and perhaps not thriving is in direct contrast - unfufiled and nurtured in its surroundings, while the burst of red from the glory of the open rose seems to symbolize the power and passion of life proudly open to the world. Kevin has captured much more than a rose; he has captured life and love in all its potential and endless possibilities. Kevin is a true visionary in his creation of this beautiful piece. Thank you, Kevin for your gift to the world and to my own loved ones. This will be perfect for Christmas as well! Bravo!

Thank you Sherrylane. Sometimes the greatest challenge to any artist, no matter what medium is used, is being able to communicate the greatest emotions and insights using the simplest of ideas to accomplish the task. I was so pleased with the way this one came out, because I think it will bring joy to everyone who sees this one most perfect rose.
