Greetings friends!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
There are things in life, or things that need to be done in order to find some white spots, shortcomings and other points that need our attention.
For example, before I started publishing about postage stamps, I slept peacefully and did not know that some of my series of postage stamps were incomplete.
Yes, and the series of postage stamps "Flowers-Roses", issued in 1979 on the island of Cuba, about which we have been talking for the last three days, needs to be replenished with two postage stamps, which, at the time of the acquisition of this series, are not were included in the sale.
So, I am missing a 5 Cuban Centavo postage stamp showing Rosa rubiginosa var. punicea.
Therefore, we move on to the next, after her, postage stamp in denomination of 10 Cuban centavos, which depicts the rose Rosa hemisphaerica.
It's hard for me to say how recognizable the image of this type of rose is. I think that only a narrow specialist will be able to accurately determine the belonging of a rose to one type or another, since many selective varieties of roses have appeared in the world since the release of this series of postage stamps.
I do not know if I met such a rose on my way, or if it was a different kind of roses, but they are all beautiful and do not allow to pass them by without taking a photo.
Everything is beautiful in a rose, it is the fullness of beauty in terms of shape, color and aroma, but even if something is taken away from it, for example, color and aroma, it will not cease to be beautiful.
Let's take a look at this postage stamp.

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
