Faded Elegance

It's like a faded old crinoline dress of many layers Keith! The detail and decay is actually beautiful! I like the stronger colour around the edges.
A very successful shot for the challenge.

Thank you Rosa. Glad you like it. I actually desaturated it a little to give a more aged look.

how so beautiful!
a great close up

have a nice day!

Thank you Annemarie.

This is amazingly beautiful. I am not very good at expressing feelings in comments, I could in Portuguese but … this could also be a theatre curtain…

Thank you so much Isabel.........and I see exactly what you mean. Glad you like it.

Wow,da kommen diese Details ganz toll rüber liebe Keith,ist schon faszinierend,wie aus der Nähe dann alles wirkt,hast du sehr schön umgesetzt :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))

Utterly beautiful! Who needs perfect roses when they look like this in decay!

Thanks Gudrun............I know what you mean, but I can't see many gardeners or florists agreeing with you :-))

Superbe partage... Comme quoi même des pétales de roses fanées peuvent faire un beau cliché...original

Thank you young man............glad you approve! I love to mooch around looking for odd stuff to photograph, it drives my wife mad :-)))
