Calla lily
« on: June 27, 2018, 03:41:30 pm »

I was greeted with a moderately dense overcast sky this morning, and decided to take advantage of the lighting to capture a calla lily that just opened up yesterday. I hope you enjoy the image and welcome your thoughts. - Bob

Without my glasses, the thumbnail did look like an Antelope Canyon shot!

I like it a lot, there's just enough details in the shadows to make it interesting!
Well done.

Thanks francois. I initially hadn't connected it with Antelope Canyon, but I see the connection, even if it wasn't intentional.

Let's call it micro-antelope…  ;)

Before putting my glasses on and seeing Antelope, I was very surprised as your photos are usually very far from the common clichés.

I'll take that as a compliment  ;)

Thanks Matt. To misquote Lebowski "The light provides".
