My maternal grandmother passed away a week ago after a long struggle with Alzheimer's. After carrying her casket as a pall bearer, I and other grandchildren were invited to take some flowers from the arrangement on her casket. I took the three roses featured below. Back at my parents Kentucky home I found a section of stonewall to photograph them on. Much love for the late Virginia "Mimi" Lawrence.

Photo Notes:
The original photo was taken with a Sony Cyber-shot digital camera. For the cosmic version, I added a blue Photo Filter to the whole image. For the stone and flowers I utilized effects: Inner Shadow, Outer Glow, and Drop Shadow.
The cosmic background photo is from the Spitzer Space Telescope Collection. That image of a reflection nebula is gorgeous and can be seen
here. Credit goes to NASA/JPL-Caltech/R. A. Gutermuth
