My 2 1/2 year old Granddaughter Caitlynn picked the unopened bud off one of my Stargazer lilies two weeks ago. We had a little talk and so she left the other lilies alone. I noticed all the neighbor's lilies have been open for weeks, but mine were slow to open even though they get lots of sunshine and water. This week one bud opened and now all four plants have at least one bud open. Very beautiful to see and "Well Worth The Wait".

It is a beautiful flower and a good shot Fran. The background is a little cluttered and distracting. Maybe if you could get only the fence it would help.
You are improving and I am just making a suggestion.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

I hate to say it but I like the collaboration better. The lighting on the flower itself is better in this one.
