These gorgeous lilies are at the Missouri Botanical Gardens (2015, 05-23), in the Climatron Greenhouse. in St. Louis, Missouri

Just loved the colour and with some of the pollen down on the pedals, also the centre of the blossom is a beautiful yellow & green.

Used Adobe Photoshop Elements 10, doing layers - used the selective tool in order to work on the blossoms & then on the base I cloned out some distraction. Used iPiccy.com to make it smaller.

Hope you've enjoyed to stop - Also Thank You in Advance for you comments and favs if you chose to do so.

Have a beautiful day, ♥ Skates ♥

They have a very distinct 3D look to them the way you have done this image. The detail is so sharp. Excellent post for Foofy Friday, Pat.

Lovely colour and great detail here Pat these lilies are beautiful. (Mrs b has pointed out that lily pollen is very poisonous to cats.)

Excellent details on the lily petals Pat - it almost has a 3D effect.

A lovely floral image creation that stands out from the dark background and the petals are sprinkled with pollen. I like it.
