  Absolutely perfect, Linda! This is just beautiful. I'm growing some now in my garden as well but only leaves so far. Can't wait for a flower.

  Beautifully photographed...is this a calla lily? I was trying to find some around here but no luck and a man in the garden store said I was a little too late for the bulbs...maybe next year!

  Linda- Good evening my friend. First let me congradulate you on the Finalist's for such well derserved work. Your work is truely beautiful and amazing. I am confident that we will be seeing them in the winner's circle.
You were so right in these flowers being so elegant. I have tried getting some good pics of them and know what you mean about them being hard to shoot.
But with persistance you showed that it can be done, and done with outstanding perfection. Its elegant, classy, and the presentation is just beautiful.
You brought out the details of the stigma with such fabulous definition. Love the design work on it. The rest of the flower a movement of circles and lines with captivating colors. Lighting and clarity are superb.
High class work
Have a most wonderful day, take care, enjoy. Good luck in the next round.
