Taken at Tualatin hill nature park on sunday. I really liked the textures and shapes here.
Nikon d5100, Nikon 55-200 at 120mm, 1/2 sec at f18 ISO 100.

Wade, you really nailed this one! I love the vibrant green textures portrayed by the lily. Nice placement of the center of the plant. The texture of the leaves enhances the overall interest of the image. I haven't seen any in the Gorge or up the Clackamas River yet as far along as this example.

These are so great to shoot.. great textures and you can go crazy with all kinds of compositions.. great exposure!

Very pleasing comp, Wade! Usually the leaves curl every which way, and an image like that is challenging to compose and fun when you get a good one. This is much more simple (in a good way)! I like the graphic nature of all the lines and the leaf shapes in a familiar repeating pattern. Rich green color, too. Nice going.
