Red Rose Hip
January 18th, 2010 by Leora
It’s been bleak here – lots of gray, and yesterday it rained all day. But at least the rose hips are bright red and cheery.

That is a nice photo with beautiful background blur! And, best of all…a bright and cheery red!
The littlest red is mighty in this season of gray and white. A hearty red, the cold not stopping it from being a beacon of the Spring to come – someday…
It’s bleak and raining here. This lovely spot of red brought a smile to my face.
It is also bleak and rainy here! Funny how this rosehip looks like a cherry. I like the bright red and green against the blurred background too.
Nice crisp photo, Leora…perfect for Ruby Tuesday.
It looks so shiny as well – a bright spot in the gray days of winter.
Ilana’s right in that it does look like a cherry.
Very beautiful capture, the grey background enhances it.
Miserably rainy here too, but hopefully it will at least get the water levels closer to a reasonable level again.
Look how shiny the rose hip is. Pictures often look better in rain than “real life” does.
I like the spot of hope.

Nicely composed photo; great color. Have a good week, Leora
This touch of red gives us hope on a bleak winter day..spring is going to be here someday. I like the contrast agains the gray. Nice closeup shot, Leora.
Amazing how red on a grey day always warms the spirit! This photo of just one red glow is very warming! Seems grey days are prevalent world wide at the moment! So is ours in summery? Oz!
How cool, that a small touch of red can brighten up so much
Simple and natural! Why is it not eaten yet?
Hmm, good question. I guess birds don’t like rose hips?
it stands out on its gray background. Nice capture!
Roses know what to do when. They don’t know it is too cold until their buds get killed off.
That is just the way Mother Nature made them to be.
Happy RT!
..

I like the blurred background
Lovely and cheery on a dull day!
Yes, I like the contrasty presentation. The hip looks very hip – just right for RT!
Gorgeous!
Simple but pretty!

Yup … certainly colorful against the wintry view.

Great shot! It’s so nice of Mother Nature to provide us with a little colour on such dreary winter days.
