Comments welcomed.  I think it's an African Lilly.  Please let me know if I am mistaken about its identity.  Thanks for looking and commenting.

Not idea about this magnificent flower's name but I like the color combination as well as the "look" of the petals and stamens.

Really nice colours.
a black velvet background would really make it pop in that light if you ever take it to the studio setting.
