Lilies almost always include one insect of some kind. I think I spy a tiny insectiod shape on one petal of this lily. I always look. I can't help it. The dark anthers show up well against the lemon yellow petals. I like the hints of the garden in the BG. Keep on clickin'! You wrote an interesting bio.

beautiful use of soft light to give this majestic flower an extra glow - the control of focus is right on the money (and the stamens)

I love lilies, you've captured this one really well. Really like the contrast.

I'm not a big fan of most of the varieties of lillies. There are just so darn many of them around here. It seems to be the easiest 'throw it in' type flower to most everyones landscaping. bleh.

However, there is a few exceptions to that rule. This is a delicate lemony yellow lilly that I adore! I would love to have that one in my yard. The dark stamen contrast beautifully against the fragile looking petals.

I just instructed my husband NOT to pull up the weed he wanted to get rid of ... a Lily. Maybe I'll show him your shot when he gets home so he knows what that weed will deliver soon.

Those stamens look very fragile. I rarely see yellow lilies, the ones around here are mostly orange and found in the wild.

A lovely lily :-) Love the DOF; it's sharp in just the right places to show this beauty off.

What a vivid lemon yellow color, and so clear and bright.
The dark add to the impact of this fine flower image.....
Well done, and I look forward to seeing more from you.

Thanks you for sharing this floral image with us.
Our journey has just begun.....
