Red Rose Hip

Red Rose Hip
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 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.

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. :)

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.

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!

Simple and natural! Why is it not eaten yet?

Hmm, good question. I guess birds don't like rose hips?

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!

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