Wood Lily in the Evening
by Wayne Jones
Thanks for your comments on my previous post of this species. I really appreciate the help.
This image was shot on my way back from making the previous image, which was in the shade. As I passed several more wood lilies which were closing up for the night, I was thinking I should photograph one, but they looked much less attractive than the open blooms. Then I saw the light of the setting Sun on this plant, and decided that it would be my next subject. To get a low angle where I could eliminate lots of background clutter, but still find an opening in all the foreground plants to shoot through, I had to climb down a steep gully and extend my tripod so the camera was above my head. I really like the way it turned out.
