Reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated.

Reports of _your_ demise have been premature, but accurate.

Very colorful. I like macro feel to this because the flower is so big.

And Rightly So.
Lovely photo, great quality.
I love seeing photos of flowers blooming this time of year, since it's just coming into winter here, it's nice to see spring elsewhere
Very nice

like the sun from the sky itself!



like `sycho said, i really like the macro element as well -- looking things at a close perspective is often the best way to express how grand something small really is.

beautiful capture.

They're beautiful, and bright. I love to see bright flowers in the middle of greenery.
I have some shots of Stargazer Lilies, I guess I oughta post 'em!
The color and lighting on this shot are perfect, you get this blast of warm bright orange right up front, like turning your face to the sunshine on a cool spring afternoon.

Ford looked angrily at him. 'Will you listen?' he snapped. 'I have been listening,' said Arthur, 'but I'm not sure it's helped'..."

I see you, little caribou...

Thank you. It was actually an older image but I modified the frame on it to look a bit more flattering. I love the image myself but hatted the frame... I think this is much more flattering to the overall image. Glad you like.... We don't have lilys anymore we moved out of that house... but man was it a great place to live in the summer time.

Good fortune is the aphrodisiac of the hopeless.

Very beautiful indeed. I like how you can see the ones that are going to open soon. What's the building in the background?
