Look at this what seems to be utter waste of Mother Nature's energies - do we really deserve this?

White Roses in Abundance

Lately I discovered this huge rose hedge in the neighbourhood with thousands of little white roses with an incredible smell and a humming of bees that was awesome...

So many incredible colours and forms and each time another lovely smell - something I always have in my nose when I see these images...
When will it be possible to conserve these smells to the computer???

The Beauty Queen of all Roses

I have never seen a rose such as this one - breathtakingly beautiful, as if constructed from some heavenly silk material...

It is even still beautiful when it started to decay...
