I noticed these pretty roses growing on the side of our church wall. They smelled so good that day.
So apparently there will be a total solar eclipse on August 21st of this year for the first time in 99 years. It will be visible across all of North America. Here is some good information on viewing safety from NASA. Use certified eclipse glasses only from recommended manufacturers. They said you should never look at the eclipsed sun through an unfiltered camera or other optical device. More interestingly, never do this while using your eclipse glasses.
I ordered some eclipse glasses from Amazon, however son K says he would rather not risk his eyes by forgetting instructions and would be happy to just see film that others publish.

Are you planning to go south to see the eclipse?
Roses are gorgeous. Your son is very wise. Hugs, Valerie
It will be partially visible from Toronto Kay!
A total solar eclipse is a wonderful, once-in-a-lifetime thing. I got to see a lunar eclipse when I was younger but, sadly, was so young I don't really remember it.
The roses are so pretty. I love all the blooms this time of year.
Nice capture Christine... :)
I heard it was coming! Should be cool!
I stopping care to see these things since you can't see them
Creative floral photo and smart son ~ save your eyes ~ ^_^

Those blooms do look lovely ...
All the best Jan
What lovely roses! I hadn't heard about the upcoming eclipse yet, thank you. I hope to get some glasses before then...
Beautiful roses Christine. Thank you for the reminder about the total eclipse. I must think about getting those special glasses.
We're looking forward to this, as we live right on the path where it will be completely dark, I think for just over one minute here.
