We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
The government of tyrants cannot last long because it is hateful to the multitude, and what is against the wishes of the multitude cannot long be preserved.

They look good Lyn. They also remind me of fancy ribbons on a beautiful package. The package is the wonderful and colorful post you gave us. Have a good weekend.
They look like kebabs!! Very pretty ones mind you, it's a lovely shot. No worries re comments Lyn, life gets in the way every now and then and keeping up with Caedes can get too much sometimes.
For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, His eternal power and Godhead;... Rom 1:20
This is lovely and they are my favourite of lilies too! I just love their colour and the way you have accentuated them in the way you have framed them, sets them off beautifully! Well done and Fav'd, so thank you for sharing!

"The more we come in contact with animals, and observe their behaviour, the more we love them, for we see how great is their care for their young." - philosopher Immanuel Kant
This is truly one of the more outstanding pieces I've seen in awhile and that's saying a lot since nearly every work you submit is wonderful in its own way. There is just something about the way the flowers pop right out of the screen and the perfect shading and composition of the framing - this is in the FAVs for sure!

I love lilies and have dozens of them in my garden, but never seem to be able to photograph them well. This shot is great and your treatment makes it even more interesting.
