Rosa canina
A pretty dog rose spotted during my morning walk. Grows in shrubs or climbs on trees.
Native to Europe, northwest Africa and western Asia.
The fruit can be used to make tea. The seeds will give you an itch!

Well.....Daniele....it's still a very pretty flower.... :)
Thanks Sarah! But it's the wrong pic! (see Monky-mind's comment). They're both Rosaceas.
:) they are both Rosacea - so you didn´t even get it that wrong :D
Hey Monkey-mind! I'm lucky you're online! I uploaded the wrong pic (saw both during my walk!) . Will rectify. Thanks!
