16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Dying Rose

The beauty of age is illustrated here. This photo is meant to honor older people who still have a lot to offer although they are undervalued by a society of mostly young millenials. This dying rose has more character and beauty than a rose bud or rose in full bloom.
