Well, Kathy, this is simply, stunning. Color, depth, light, etc. Remarkable work, you consistently bring us much beauty and it is pure joy to view your photographs.

Known as Eustoma as well, Kathy.
Needs 'some' (please notice the quotes) maintenance, but the 'reward' is wonderful as your perfect image shows!

"it has a reputation as being difficult" Yes, the pronunciation. :) Very nice shot.

Very nice capture of the texture of the pedals. One critique: the shadow in the middle of the blossom.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
