Great shot Keith. Wonderful color and an effective comp. I like the sky as a BG.

Nice to see a post from you, Keith. Nice shot of these lilies framed against a blue sky background.

Very good capture. Trying to decide if I would like to see some stem below the flowering? Also, just a little more room at the very tip of the flower at the top from the frame.

The details in the lilies are great and the sky with clouds make a terrific background. Definitely speaks of summer.

Lovely view of these lilies, Keith, against the sky - beautifully composed and framed. The orange tones have come out superbly.

The quality is excellent for me. The flash light has controlled beautifully the shade of the back lighted flowers.
Take care.
