The Last Rose of Autumn - a photo on Flickriver

            Autumn is now well and truly with us here in Melbourne, and the cooler winds of seasonal change are blowing away the remnants of summer, like it tosses the red, gold and orange leaves that carpet the ground.

Today was an Indian summer day, an oddity between the colder rainy days.  Therefore I thought I'd go for a walk and take advantage of the sunny conditions.

On my way I passed by this beautiful rose carmine coloured rose bloom, which may be amongst the last of the autumn roses.  It caught my eye from across the street with its vibrant colour.  It looked so beautiful in the sunlight against a backdrop of golden elm leaves
