Location
The photo was taken in my rose garden beside my house. It had grown over the eaves, and heading to the sky. It was about 3 feet above it.Time
It was taken in early evening, after I watered all my roses. Cloudy day, perfect backdrop for the rose.Lighting
As much as I enjoyed taking the photo it was needing a little editing just to make it pop. So I converted to black and white, and than added back the colorful rose. Perfect compliment to each other.Equipment

I had been battling 2 brain surgeries and had just started taking photos again and really enjoying it again. The rose bush had been dug up the year before due to mold. I thought it was dead. But there was a little life in it, once it grew it was trying to reach heaven. After this season, it did die and was removed. It never came back. So that's why I named it, Never Give Up.Editing

My bag is simple, camera, lenses, cleaner, cloths, batteries, and cards. All tucked into my backpack.Feedback
Never Give Up! Try different angles, try different times of the day, use your natural lighting as much as possible. Get creative!
