    What a beautiful, perfect rose. Love the color. And your friend who can clear a yard in mere seconds is gorgeous. Glad those talons aren’t after me!

    Really nice shots. I love the colors, especially in the first and last ones.
    At first I thought it was nice, the juxtaposition of opposites: a beautiful delicate rose and fierce predator, till I noticed the rose-red eyes of the hawk, the ruffles of feathers and petals, and the deadly-sharp “thorns” on both flower and bird. The similarities are just as interestings as the differences.

    Your photos are a treat to look at. I hope you get as least as much pleasure from taking them as I do from looking at them.
