The Weekly Photo Challenge this week is “Entrance”.
This Rose Arbor is in a local park but it was winter at the time I took this photo, so it’s not in it’s full splendour!
Wait till summer comes and it will be covered in brilliant blooms!
Rose Arbor Entrance - minus the roses!
Lovely arbor! I imagine a cool breeze blowing through the area with a hint of lavender!
Your imagination is spot on – the park sits on the river, so there is almost always a cool breeze sweeping through!
I love this photo even without the roses! It just looks so peaceful and relaxing. It must be especially beautiful when the roses are in bloom. I guess I will need to wait for that one. Anyway, I’m enjoying your photos!
Thanks Donna – I will take a photo in summer so you can see it in it’s full splendour!

I love this! I close my eyes and can just imagine what it is like covered in blooms!
PS whoever wore any of the shoes in the pictures you posted on your next post would certainly make a grand “entrance” LOL
Haha – the shoes are something else, aren’t they!
Going to take another pic in summer when the arbor is covered in roses and will do a follow up post.
It is quite beautiful already, so I can imagine what it would look like with full rose blooms. Update us when they show.
Thanks Elizabeth – the whole park is beautiful.
I will update you when the roses bloom – could be quite a while as we are still in winter!
Great perspective in this photo Barb, I look forward to the Summer version. Please remind me again, what exactly is Summer….we don’t seem to get one in the UK!!
Thanks Marcia!
I know what you mean with the UK weather – I was born and bred there – that’s one of the reasons I emigrated to Australia many moons ago.
Having said that though, our summers in Oz are too hot and very humid – but our winters are perfect. Guess we can’t have it all!
I will take another pic of that rose arbor when the roses are in full bloom!
I wouldn’t mind transplanting that into my garden!
You could get an arch instead Denise – they are ready made and much smaller. I got one and have jasmine growing over it – it looks really pretty!
I think I like the looks of your winter. Our’s is not quite so friendly looking or as warm as it appears to be. I would love to see the park in bloom. Jeanne
Our winters are my favourite time of year – cold nights and warm days – just perfect!
When our summer is in full swing, I promise to go back to the park and take a photo of the rose arbor in all it’s glory!
How beautiful! I can’t wait to see it in bloom!
You will, when our summer arrives, I will take another photo for you; you will have a bit of a wait though, we are still in winter!
another photo due in the summer.
It looks great now but I bet when it’s covered in roses it looks and smells stupendous
Definitely another photo to come. We are still in winter here, so you will have to wait a while Patrecia!
Hope we get to see it in bloom.
I will have to remember to take another photo in summer when it’s at it’s best!
Hi,
A lovely photo, it does look like a nice park to walk around, very relaxing.
Thanks Mags – it’s a lovely park for a leisurely walk!
Very beautiful arbor! I like your winter. Winter in Kansas City isn’t very green.
Our winters up here in the south east corner of Queensland are very mild; we never get frost, the lowest our temperature goes to at night in winter is about 5, and we still get warm days of about 22!C! Our winters are perfect – but not so our summers!
I can see it in my mind and it’s spectacular! Thanks, Barb.
Your imagination serves you correctly Nancy – it’s spectacular in summer!
It is still very beautiful even without the roses. Hugs!
Mumsy, this whole park is beautiful any time of the year! It’s very old, and could tell a few stories!
That is really beautiful, and I can almost imagine what it will look like in the summer! Great take on the challenge…
Thanks Rebekah! I’ll take a photo in summer and post it here, just for you!
what a beautiful spot.
Thanks Joss – it’s one of the most beautiful parks I have ever walked through – lots of huge, shady trees, palms and flower beds; it’s a place to sit and linger!
