taken on the 7th day of the 7th month of the year '07...now given that info who would you dedicate that to? These day lily flowers were so huge in diameter, tall and bright that even though I took them between rainshowers they were vibrant and cheerful. They also had to be supported by stakes. The grey you see behind them was a huge granite rock. They were planted in front of a grocery store in Franconia that I don't usually frequent and I was so glad I had my stealth camera with me. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did :)

777...I thought I was seeing a plane!! I'm glad it's not a plane, these are much better to look at. Great colors, great angle, and great clarity. Couldn't ask for more!

Hi PJ,
I awoke at around 7:07 and 7 seconds, the seventh of July 07 to start a great day, (not actually, one hour too late but then again we live life one hour too early compared to GTM (~88~))
Nice image, like it a lot,

Thanks for sharing

PJ, I'm honest by saying that I'm not the person who believe that certain figures bring luck and other figures only misery. I'm honest as well by saying that, although this image is taken by a stealth camera, your capture is really beautiful. Regards, Cornelius

They look like firecrackers, a variety of lily. Perfect for this time. Lots of people got married yesterday because it was 7-7-7. I guess they can expect their spouses won't forget the date!

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Ah, I see that Stephen already stole my line. I guess that was bound to happen. And Rob came up with a really good substitute. Did anybody make a James Bond joke? Oh well, I give up now. I missed the boat on this one. It's a pretty image, though. I love orange flowers. They make me happy.
