I fell in love with lilies about a decade ago. I have an entire "island" in the middle of my backyard planted with all different colors of Asiatic lilies (daylilies are too short-lived for me). Here's one of them (the whole island is starting to bloom and I LOVE it!):
Tech info: Rebel XT, 85mm, 1/100, f/2.5, 400ISO.
This is one I did some editing on to make it a little more dramatic. (CC welcome). I've also included the original, which I like for its softness. (Click the thumbnail to see larger pic).

Gorgeous lily! I love the Asiatics, too. Their fragrance is sooo wonderful in the early evening.
Beautiful lilies!!
Beautiful, I love lillies too.
very pretty. so glad you get to enjoy them in your yard.
Very pretty!
Very pretty color and your composition is great. As for the pic of Quackers (on my blog), you're welcome to it, but I have a small hunch that you already have enough photos to fill all your wall space. ;)
Oh very pretty. Can't wait to see the other colors you have!!
Like your color. Lilies aren't my fave- they make me sneeze- so this one is perfect for me :)
Just Beautiful!
Love them both :) Beautiful lily shot and color too. And how lucky you are to have this blooming all around you!
you did a great job on the processing. really brought out the intense colors.
I just love the saturated colors of your lily!
OMG, these are GORGEOUS! I love lillies too. I have some daylillies in my garden and they pretty much have blooms on them all summer long. I guess I am lucky. ;)
My grandma has the most amazing Asiatic lillies in her garden, I really need to get over there and see them. I love how the smell, they rank right up there with lilacs for me! :)
I love the colors--in both of them. I can play with flower photos all day. There are just so many color possibilities that work, aren't there?
Lillies are so beautiful, I just love this color.
So pretty! I love flower photos.
