Lilium flaviflorum - Yellow Tigerlily

Quite pleased with this shot as it shows four stages of the flower from the green bud, changing over to yellow, then the flower in the background which is half opened, finishing up with the fully open flower in foreground. Wasn't planned, but that's how it came out!
Nice POV. I think it makes the shot.

@david68 Thanks David. When the flowers open, they end up facing the ground. With the plant only being about 50cm tall, and the stem being quite inflexible, I didn't have too much choice for POV other than to get below the flower to shoot. The other option was to cut the flowers off the plant and photograph them, but I prefer leaving my flowers in the garden.
