Great captures! Love the color and sharpness in the pictures. Thanks for sharing!

I would move your son to the right or left of the falls though, and reframe the photo so he would cover 2/3 of the vertical aspect of the photo. But that's me. I could be wrong. :P

I would suggest that the mystery flower (No.3) is a Hydrangea.
Thats what it appears to me anyway. They can be changed from blue to pink by altering the iron content in the soil.
Well done, love those roses, being a rose grower myself.
Great photos...

Yes it does look like one ... used to have a few in the garden of the family home.
I think it was a Sulphur or Phosphorus additive also changed bloom colour as well.
