Love this! I can almost feel the texture of the star gazer lily's petals. This is one of my favorite flowers, so I painted it! http://www.etsy.com/listing/71884016/star-gazer-lily-art-limited-edition
This brought back so many memories..I used to work at a flowershop actually that's where my hubby and I meet:) Every time we would received a shipment of lillies; we knew that our fingers would end up looking orange in about two days because as soon as they would we had to pluck the anters which are part of the stamens beacuse while they look pretty they stain the flower and/or anything else that comes into contact and from what I remember have no benefit to the flower.
Love that first photo. So vibrant! I see you like contests. I've got one going on at my blog called Favorite Photo of the Week. Feel free to join in if you like. http://throughaphotographerseyes.blogspot.com/2011/05/favorite-photo-of-week-contest.html
Oh those are lovely images of what I think might be stargazer lillies. I like the little spikes all over the flower petals. My vibrant photo this week was a lily aswell.
