Please enjoy this photo my friends...and remembering... that all 'imperfections'... need not be removed... He he!! ;o) I am referring to the scars left on the stems... from fallen lillies...yes 'lilly time'...PJ's expression...and I like it... is gradually fading...I have very few left!! Because of this...I am making every lilly contribute! LOL! I liked the shadows...in this image...Thank you...Marilyn

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"

Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength.

i'm in love. this shot is beautiful... the lack of focus and color in the background is fantastic because a flower this stunning deserves all the attention. Great work!

"Imperfection is beauty; madness is genius & it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm really better than them."--Marilyn Monroe

Gosh Marilyn, this is such a bright sunny photo. I had not seen it I guess. Not sure why not. I'm trying to get my camera to go from SUmmer to Autumn...lol.....and it's refusing to do so..hehe I am thinking you are probably out finding all sort of other bright photos to take. Thank you for some sunshine with this lovely posting. Verena
