Thanks, Johanna! And everyone for the thumbs.

That was in July, and bloomed several times over at least a month.
I couldn't find the original, but here it is in a slideshow I hope
you will enjoy.

It almost looks like pastels.

I immediately thought it looked like a painting. Super pretty, Cal.

Thank you, my friends!

My camera isn't razor sharp, so that lends to the pastel effect.
Sorry I couldn't find the original used for the banner, but
here is the same lily, before & after adding an artistic effect in Paint.net.
(though I don't use it for banners ;)

It's just moving pixels around, and subjective.
