Another macro view, this time highly abstract, so it’s hard to identify the flower. It’s a different view of the hybrid lily photographed at the Test Gardens west of Madison, Wisconsin. Aren’t these colors amazing, almost like a blazing fire. A perfect match for the fiery days of August!

About Bo MackisonI'm a photographer, book-artist, traveler, naturalist, and creator of the Contemplative Creatives Journey, An Online Workshop and Community and Desert Wisdom Cards and Workshops. Though often not well known, I find the desert a welcoming place - a healing space. Its mysteries and gifts transformed me several years ago. Since that first encounter, I return again and again to fill my well in what most people think of as a desolate region. I'd love to share my desert discoveries and wisdom with you. Please subscribe to receive my five part mini email course The Gifts of the Desert. It's my gift to you.
I always enjoy your more abstract images and this is no exception. Very nice.
I had a good day in the lily garden, came home with quite a bit of editing to do. And several photos I love! Thanks.
Lovely lines. I really enjoy the mystery of macros. 🙂
Oh, Theresa. I love that — the “mystery of macros”. They can be very mysterious, I agree!
You captured the glow of this lily.
This really was a warm-color lily, Anita!
Beautiful! I especially love those colors. 🙂
Perfect colors for summer! 🙂
