Amazon Lily

Amazon Lily (Eucharis grandiflora)
Taken in my Orchid House. No leaves, as the flower stem is so tall !!
Positioning of the 4 flowers made this a pain to get a balanced shot!
D7100
Sigma 50mm macro.
100 ISO
25th @f5
7 Stacks in CZM
Canvas tilted to try and get it off central, and gaps added with BG.
Stem a bit dominant but something has to hold the flowers up! blush

Thanks for looking.
Cheers
John

John: A new flower for me so this is a real treat in many ways. Marvelous high key presentation of a wonderful subject. Most excellent.>=))>
