A wild red day lily
Captured in early July, afternoon light
(macro setting with my old camera)

I entered a purple colored version with effects in the DD last month
but also wanted to share the original

Thanks for looking
Have a great weekend!! :)

  That's strange! I left a comment on this this morning and looks like it never showed up...hmmmm..

Anyway, this is gorgeous. The colors and clarity are outstanding. The colors remind me of a blazing fire! I rememeber the purple version. That was beautiful as well! Excellent work!
