Lily Macro
Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 1 February 2009 in Plant & Nature.
Taken at Longwood Gardens Conservatory several weeks ago. This is a cropped macro. I liked the colors, lines and simplicity.
*****THANK YOU FOR VISITING ANITA'S PHOTOBLOG!*****
I welcome your honest critique, especially if they will improve my photography.
If I have made a mistake in a flower identification, please let me know!
A few words about the EXIF data, beginning in April when I began using Nikon D300 and the Sigma 105mm macro: My new camera and macro lens record the relative or effective f stop, not the one seen on the lens. For an explanation of this, go to the next to the last question at this site.

@jamesy: Thanks! I'm not exactly sure myself. I think it is one of the petal tips.

Sensuous was the word that came to mind as I opened this post. Beautiful color, lines, and simplicity.
