I find the Rose swirls very attractive. One out of a hundred roses are just perfect usually, if I am lucky That gives me a yield of a very cool 2 swirls per year  8)

Please check the large version for better viewing experience. 

Found one such this morning at Chicago Botanical Gardens.

Superb image Ram --- gorgeous gradations, and a perfect swirl. To my eye the white frame is bit of a distraction, though that's a matter of taste of course. :) Simply stunning!

The truly perfect rose with just a touch of dew! You could even move in tighter for an entirely different look, too.

Beautiful image!! I love how the color fades with each swirl out to the white edge.
