Description

These days, Sicily has been mortally wounded. The incessant rain has caused landslides and floods taking with them destruction and death. I thank the friends of RR that have written worrying about me and my family. I live close to Catania, while the disaster occurred near Messina. This rose is dedicated to the flood victims, whose number, unfortunately, is likely to rise.

A lovely rose, with such delicate and beautiful texture..... It is a terrible tragedy however, but a most heartfelt tribute... My thoughts and prayers are with you...

Great macro Maria. It is ironic that you in Sicily have to worry about flood victims while I can't remember when we had our last real rain. Since the beginning of the year we had 2.78 inches at our airport, 2.52 inches at my house!
