Many of the irises have withered in the garden of my dear friend and neighbor Cindy Dyer, but her lilies are now starting to open, like this beauty that I photographed early on Sunday morning. It is hot and humid today, so I did not feel much like venturing outside with my camera. Instead I decided to share this burst of bright color.
Have a wonderful Monday.

Very nice Mike!
Thanks, Reed.
Gorgeousness. I love these colors. Stay cool! Blessings and honor, Christine
Thanks, Christine. I am hoping we go back into the 80’s for the high temperatures–my body does not enjoy the mid-90’s so early in June, technically before the start of summer.
Beautiful orange !
Beautifully framed and separated from the background.
What an unusual colour.
