Found these lilies growing under a huge live oak on a 97 degree August day in coastal Mississippi. Re-cropped original upload per suggestion.

I remember the first upload, but I wish you had left it in your gallery for a little while for comparison. I like this view better, as the flowers are more clearly visible and they hold up well to closer scrutiny :)

I love to see a lump of sugar commit suicide in my teacup.

Very nice. The stem is kinda bothering me though.

What delicate shades in this lovely flower! They feel cool and fresh, even though you told us it was 97 degrees! If this were my pic (and I can't photograph nearly as well as you can), I'd build a frame for it that is maybe twice as wide on the sides as on the top and bottom...yet allows the stem and maybe just a bit of petal on top and bottom to come outside the frame. I'd make the frame a light green with a very unobtrusive pattern of some kind on it. Framing will keep the eye from wandering away from the Star of the Show and reduce the amount of blurry area.
