Flowers are one of the top most photographed subjects of all time. It’s easy enough to see why; they’re everywhere, extremely colorful and very pleasing to the eye. But there’s a sadder side to these subjects that haven’t been explored much. And this is what I did, the first time I photographed a rose.
