Beautiful macro of the lily! Looks so fresh after the storm! And very sharp photo - simply gorgeous!
Wish you a great Sunday!
And am I ever glad it did! This is ... truly magnificent Sandy. I can almost count the grains of pollen (achoo!) An explosion of vivid color... this is HOT!
(Well... you did say on fire, yeah?)
Wow! I have no words to comment such beauty!
Congratulations!
Have a nice week and bring us another macro wonderful like this next week.
glorious beauty, love the colors. enjoy your sabbath.
Stunning macro Sandy!
Lovely color and clarity.
That's a beautiful Lily. I love the water droplets.
The flowers say so little but speak of beuty of nature, the birds freedom and the buterfly flimg display of the fireworks of nature
Aren't daylilies just amazing?? And all that pollen there. Reminds me that I stuck my nose into a daylily that is supposed to smell good. All I got was a snoot full of pollen. My sniffer isn't what it used to be.
Beautiful lily! Beware of the pollen. Once it gets on material it is the devil's only job to get out the stain.
Looks like the rain put the fire out so you could take a photo! Now fire is just a simple metaphot. . . and you have a stunning photo!
Awesome macro Sandy, that is a very beautiful lily. Great photo.
I just love rich colors and the water droplets.
A great macro shot Sandy, awesome colors.
A firey lily with little droplets of water to put the fire out! A stunner for sure the way you captured it!
Striking colors!
wow what an amazing pic! It is ART! The colors and the vibrancy! I can smell the sweetness! Well done my dfear Friend!
Sandy: A beautiful macro of the internals of that hot lily.
This picture is really good. I am so proud of you.
I got to see the Daylily collection at the NYBG this weekend. Pretty much blew my mind. Your Lily is definitely special with that color, it should be in the collection too. Did you know there over 50,000+ cultivars of Daylilies?
Beautiful detailed picture of the lily stamens! Nice to hear that this lovely plant made it through all the storms.
So pretty!
Amazing shot. It is really on fire.
Sandy, what a splendid macro shot! I enjoy it so much!
I'm glad it withstood the storm!
Super shot....
This is completely gorgeous! You have captured it's beauty!
nice macro capture sandy. i like the red shading of the flower. now i believe painters could have found their inspiration on these flowers.
Those colours are beautiful.
Someone has been trying to put the fire out, I'm glad they did not damage that beautiful golden pollen.
Nice combination of colors!
You're a great photographer... that's lovely!
I love how you capture such beauty!
Fabulous macro shot and exquiste colours
Beautiful closeup.
Lilies are such gloriously beautiful flowers to have around.
the scent can be overpowering in a small room yet I really love the scented ones - 10 1/2 years ago I had major abdominal surgery.
The first 2 beautiful bouquets of flowers included scented lilies. I may have needed the staff to remove them from the room at night, yet they were a lovely aroma for healing.
I so agree with Maggie may about the pollen - it does stain fabric badly (folks - just soak with an oxygen bleach)
Sandy, thank you sincerely for sharing this wonderful flower from your Folk's own garden,
care and huggles,
Michelle/Mickle
lovely freshly watered flowers. Here in Kalifornia the plants get so dusty come August and it is always tempting to get a hose and clean off the whole neighborhood.
WOW!!!
Really nice...
Loved the post and loved the blog even more!!
Amazing...:)
Would always keep following this blog... do keep writing!!!
Enough to make the heart of any bee (this one included*) beat faster.

WOW! The colors are amazing!
What a portrait. Coming in so close makes it a whole new experience, seeing this flower. It's a stunning photo.
This is a gorgeous shot Sandy. Thanks for sharing...
Wow! That's just gorgeous!
The water to put it out.
This is a knockout image; what a strong, brilliant lily.
