depscribe's photos with the keyword: multiflora roses

I made this picture not so much to capture the blossom as to test the Meike 25mm f1.8 manual lens on a Fuji X-Pro1. This is a 100 percent crop from the center of the image.

The United States Department of Agriculture a generation ago encouraged farmers to make hedges of Asian multiflora roses instead of putting up fences. Problem is, birds ead the rose hips -- seed pods -- and poop the seeds all over the place, and now multiflora roses are officially a harmful invasive species. Thanks, government!
