... on a sad day

Nothing particularly special about this photo except my Mum's roses help lift my spirits on a very sad day.

each petal that falls will carry with it it's heady perfume of lasting memories... sad days, inner strength and compassion.

A great idea to fill the frame with flowers! I like the distant perspective and shallow DOF.
