Pink Rose, photo by Harold Davis. View this image larger.

I photographed this pink rose by morning sunlight, using a mirror and some white board to reflect the sunlight streaming in the window back up and into the rose.

This view is pretty close, because I was really taken with the inner spiral—almost appears to be two spirals curled together.

I have some other nice versions of this rose and one of its buddies, purchased in a Trader Joe’s bouquet. Proving once again that the you don’t need to be expensive or exclusive to be beautiful—at least if you are a flower.
