All three homes around this intersection have wood fires and on frosty mornings, if they are all stoked up at the same time, the smoke hangs in the air. I love the smell of wood-smoke. The frost is still on the ground where the shadows have only recently receded.

new growth on rose bush

Photo taken, just now on my phone, for Jennifer’s One Word Photo Challenge: Carmine.

This is my standard rose tree – much more than a bush. There are two branches from earlier in the year, not yet trimmed, soaring skywards. New growth is sprouting. The leaves will turn green as they age.

From Wikipedia:
Carmine is the general term for some deep red colors that are very slightly purplish but are generally slightly closer to red than the color crimson is.
