Strong-pong Lily

At home

Dick bought a whole bunch of these to celebrate our recent
wedding anniversary, but since they opened up neither of us
can stand the strong scent, they've been relegated to the music
room and the door is shut.. a pity, because they are a striking
looking flower.

Even in the shadow it looks great, Yvonne! I don't know the smell… Irene

A very beautiful shot - didn't realize lilies had such a strong scent - do they have to be keep indoors to keep cool ? V

Beautiful image Yvonne...I love Lillies and so far haven't found their scent overpowering...maybe it's the cold climate I live in...LOL...BV

A marvelous lily. So beautiful but like you say, a very strong scent. V

They are striking flowers and so photogenic, but I agree with you about the smell and they are messy too. Your photograph is beautiful and so well executed. "V"

This looks a lot like a lily that I saw in another favourite's gallery recently but can't recall who. I did wonder about the name. Hey, it could be worse; it could have been a carrion flower...

The composition is marvelous and lovely bright light in the background making a dynamism to Pong Lily, Great detail and beautiful white, Yvonne. VVV
