Lilly Stamen

[excogitator]

This photograph is from my own garden, the idea was to get the Stamen as clear as possible. Little concerned about overall composition. I wanted to have complete flower in the background but couldn't get that angle as it will not show Stamen as clearly as it has come in this photograph.

Any comments?

If this is the Day Lilly I have them in my garden too - but not this colour. It is gorgeous colour you have. I have tried to capture those stamens too - have you tried taking the flower more from a side on angle? I find that works quite well, although it is difficult to get all the stamens sharply in focus. I will look forward to reading other replies you receive.
