Two Dozen Roses

In Portland Oregon there is a rose garden in Washington Park. We took a short walk after picnic to see it. This is close to one half of the garden:

I did not expect anything like this so I had no tripod or any of the good things for flower photography. My main excuse is that I'm still in the everything sucks stage :headslap:

Anyway here goes two dozen roses out of the hundred present.
(sorry I only have the MA names Rosus Nicus)

wow. Beautiful set!

Wow! Beautiful rose overload! Love the one with the pretty lady, Greg!

I'll tell my wife JAS, I just wanted to show how large that one was.

Lots of wonderful roses in this bunch! :)

Very nice set, Greg, I especially love the one with Deb, super shot. :highfive:
