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'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.
EG Wow says
Nice crisp photo, Leora...perfect for Ruby Tuesday.
Carletta says
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. :)
Rajesh says
Very beautiful capture, the grey background enhances it.
Robin from Israel says
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!

How cool, that a small touch of red can brighten up so much :)
Ellie says
Simple and natural! Why is it not eaten yet?
Leora says
Hmm, good question. I guess birds don't like rose hips?
Marites says
it stands out on its gray background. Nice capture!
Jim says
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!
