Rose hips at sunrise

A week ago I published a photo of the colorful leaves on our back-yard linden tree and on the ground under and around it. I took the picture through what remains of a rose bush, which is leafless branches and the plant's seed pods, called "rose hips" in English and faux fruits in French. They They are red and there are rose seeds inside them, from what I've read. They are also called "rosehips" written as one word, "rose haws," and "rose heps." My sister left a comment asking about a rose hip she noticed in the middle of the photo on the left above, and I can't remember if I answered her comment. On the right above, you can see a closeup of a rose and some rose hips that I took that same morning.

  2. That orange rose is the perfect color to go with those leaves.
