Old Fashioned Rose
by kerrowdown
First decent showing for this plant combined with the fact Pentax don't do Red ... pretty lucky I got an image at all.
The Pentax Red Bogeyman was either on his day off... or alternately he is a figment for the poorly exposed image imagination.
I bought it last year and to be honest in did nothing, nada, zip... So this year just one bloom, which I've keeping an eye on to get the right time to photograph it.
It's also supposed to be a highly scented too... perhaps that happens next year.

Aye there's a whole normally very vocal fraternity out there, who seem unable to expose correctly for the colour Red... either ending up as Maroon or badly blown out Red. Pentax doesn't do red!? Never heard that! Anyway, nice result!
Thank you for the kind comment.
