| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
This Canada Lily was growing in a wooded bog area near Jamestown New York. It comes in yellow, orange and red color phases.
The shot was taken showing it's underside since the flower hangs its head downward. I will post another image in workshop which shows the bloom as it appears normally.
The Canada Lily which is sometimes called The Wild Yellow Lily, blooms from June to August with the flowers lasting from 7 to 10 days.
The plant is found in moist meadows, bogs, and woodland openings.
I used a flash since it was very dark in this area of the woods. The ground was so swampy and mushy I couldn't use a tripod. |

Hi Ron,
Nice shot of an interesting species, never seen that one. Nice and sharp.
Thanks,
John
Again...one thing somewhat familiar to me but not quite..I have what is called a Tiger Lilly but methinks it might be a cultivar even though it is in the woods...out here, believe this onr not, folks actually go out into the wilds of nowhere and plant seed!!! It must be some sort of Pauline Gift of which none of us have read...

Bonjour Ron,
Très belle macro dans laquelle le sujet est bien mis en valeur en s'opposant nettement à l'arrière, et par la finesse des détails et la délicatesse des couleurs.
A bientôt sur TN pour de nouvelles aventures.
