My Frosted Rose

Post by phyco126 »

We had a major frost storm Friday through Saturday. The frost caused major accidents every where in town, and the interstate kept getting closed down. The worst accident was a 50 - 60 car pile up on the southbound lane of the interstate. The frost produced some 1/4th inch ice on everything man made, and some beautiful frost on everything else. My roses happened to be in full bloom during this storm. Now it wasn't the picture I wanted, but the frost was just too heavy on the plant, so instead of getting the shot of the center rose, I got a side shot instead. *sigh*

Any comments?

For some reason I never would expect you to have roses to begin with. But yes, that's a really lovely picture.

Alunissage: They came with the house, so I pruned them. After I did that, they bloomed again. I'm not particularly fond of roses, I'm more of a tulip guy.

For some reason I just caught this thread, and well.... being the dirty birdy that I am I was thinking naughty things. I was hoping to see a tall firm rock hard rosebud, but that wasn't the case.

Yeah, Phyco, being the fan of classical cinema that I am I thought it was going to be a screen capture from Citizen Kane. I demand my money back.

In the interwebs, perverts abound.

Silver Phoenix, please tone it down a little bit. We don't need to know your reasons for being on the internet, and the younger folk on this board especially don't.

Reading Comprehension much, or is obvious sarcasm lost on you? Shame...

That's what I was thinking... it looks like a sugar-coated flower.

@Silver Phoenix - I've got that song stuck in my head now, thanks. :P

The issue was the tastelessness, not the sarcasm. Just tone it down.

It was in reference to a comment he made on his YouTube site, so I don't expect you to understand the reference.

1. I check phyco's Youtube page from time to time, most recently after he posted his latest video. I know the reference.
2. If you want to discuss this further, PM me. No matter what context you give it, even though it was sarcastic and referential, your post was out of line, and I was giving you a friendly warning.
3. To return some semblance of topicality, I really liked the rose when I first saw it. And I did think of food too.
