Easter Lily
I bought an Easter Lily a few days ago and it has done well out on the back deck with our warming weather. I sat down with it this evening and started playing around with macro shots using my trusty Nikon P80 point and shoot. I was able to get within a couple of inches to get this framed just hand holding the camera. Some additional processing in cs4 using a Topaz Adjust and Detail layer and then a selective Orton layer finished it off.

Have a Happy Easter everyone.

Theres a bit of a halo, but otherwise very pretty.
