Garden Gem

Garden Gem is from my The Beauty Within collection and was composed at the Edisto Memorial Gardens in Orangeburg, SC. I went there expecting to get some nice rose compositions, but was unable to find anything exciting on my initial inspection of the gardens. Luckily, I found a nice section of daylilies that made the trip worthwhile. I loved the colors in this one.

Yes very colourful . There's so much in the natural world that escapes the eye, if only we looked closer like you do we would see its hidden beauty.

That’s a good shot Steven, gives me food for thought for my lilies when they appear in the summer.

At a quick glance, it looks like an alien landscape.

Yes, I couldn't agree more. That's why I love macro, it allows one to uncover beauty that normally goes unseen.

Ian,
I think you'll be pleased when they arrive. Lilies are one of my favorite flowers for finding exciting and beautiful scenes. Lots of abstract opportunities as well.
