This is dreamy and gorgeous, Courtenay. Glad to see "you" here. And ESPECIALLY since I was THINKING specifically of you when I posted my entry just now...."Courtenay would know what is going on in this photo!"

Love the use of your "extra" space in the image...the bokeh is outstanding and makes you focus in in the lily. My grandmother who passed away at 93 had some lilies that looked just like this. She gave me some to transplant before she died. I think of her when I see them bloom. #10093069
