Stargazer lily, lily flower

Here's another great lily my florist friend allowed me to photograph. They were actually a present to my wife from her. (our anniversary) They are called Stargazer's and they are magnificent. The multitude of pinks and white within each flower is breath taking. The orange stamin(?) dangle on each tiny stem. Touch one, and you get orange pollen all over the place. She had plucked a few as she said most people don't like them on because of that. Used a lot in weddings I understand, so you don't need orange on the white wedding gown! I asked her to keep a few as I wanted to paint this jewel sometime. But for right now, I sprinkled a few water drops on it, put some drape into the background and fired up the camera.

Hope you too can use it for your next project. Let me know how it turns out!
