The lilies at the New Hanover County Arboretum were just gorgeous. Their beautiful colors and textures stood out especially on a gray day that would eventually bring a good, drenching storm. Before then, though, their orange velvet petals stretched out like an invitation.

Reminds me of our early summer orange lilies. But this one has deeper, richer colours.

What superb colour Sandy! I could use some of that forecast rain. Our temps are already soaring and the ground is drying up as you watch.
beautiful bloom. somehow represents the much needed hope for another possible global crisis.
It's a beauty Sandy. I love all the different colors you can get with the lily, and yours is such a pretty color.
Wonderful macro photography.
Regards and best wishes
