Inside the Fire

From the lilies, another POV.
Very busy work week that won't let up til the weekend.
Thanks for continuing to view and comment -- I'm trying to keep up between work things but know I've fallen behind.

@amandal Thanks Amanda! I appreciate your enthusiasm! I did this with a handheld macro at about 2:00 in the morning when the house was quite dark. I put the lily under a hanging "spotlight" lamp that hangs over a part of our kitchen countertop. I used spot metering, having placed the flower just slightly in front of where the light was coming directly down on it, so it was not quite, but slightly backlit. Hope this makes sense!

[Simply Amanda]
