[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
From my garden, the Stargazer is by far my favorite lily. A very fragrant flower.

From the web: In ancient mythology and in folklore from around the world, the lily has appeared as a deeply spiritual and philosophical metaphor. Developed in the latter part of the 20th century, the stargazer lily is a recent addition to the lily family, but this unique and rather exotic hybrid has rapidly risen in popularity to become one of the most adored and sought-after of all lily varieties.

WOW!
The shallow dof has really allowed the pistils and stamens to become the subject of the photo, with the lily becoming the background - a cool idea
Well done

hello julie,
We are thinking alike today as I also posted a lily. I love how the stamens and pistels seem to pop out in 3_D.
Wonderful colour, sharpness and presentation.
