Found this Lilly at another neighbour's garden, when I stopped to chat. I'd already shot all their flowers, but these had just come into bloom, for the first time.Hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.

A gorgeous flower ... so crisp & clear. I like how the framing accents the colors in the flower. A fantastic shot Doug.

This is a magnificant image. May I suggest that you flip it horizontally so the blank space is on the left that way the icons won't cover up that beautiful flower. Bravo! This is a masterpiece.

I'm not a huge fan of frames, particularly a digital one created around ones own image. I feel this detracts the effectiveness of a print, and is slightly distracting. When I purchase a print I look for one on canvas or has a small non distracting frame. This gives the viewer or customer an opportunity to individualize, additionally the print speaks for itself, not the frame or colors surrounding it. Very nicely done nonetheless, kudos on a very lovely shot! Thanks for sharing!
