Thanks, Annie. Easy to see why Callas are such a popular "event" flower.

Thanks - they really do have sensual lines (oh...never mind - I was going to make some witty "Queen of curves" remark).

I find lots of enjoyable contrast here.Black vs white...bold space vs thin wispy strands...curves vs lines...

Thank you. Not really sure how that background happened - got a little enthusiastic in Photoshop I suspect.

Not bad, I like the flow.

joe-veal In reply to ParadigmParadox [2007-05-31 04:06:56 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. I'm not entirely happy with it (public parks in the breeze), but I wanted to capture the flow that you mentioned.

They really have interesting patterns in them. I have some good ones of mine that I need to put up. I've been taking too many pics, and not keeping up with what I have. When summer really hits here (with the 110 F heat and 80 F at night with either 80% humidity or bone-dry Santa Ana winds and seldom anything in between, mind you) then I will catch up on posting, because I won't be outside as much (unless I head down to the beach).

I love it! It's rather intense simplicity! (if that makes any sense )

Makes perfect sense, and thanks very much.

This is gorgeous, which reminds me I need to have a last crack at my lily

Thanks. Is it just me or is there something odd about Calla lilies blooming in my spring and in your autumn. Another Australian enigma.

icemother In reply to joe-veal [2007-05-31 04:57:17 +0000 UTC]

... different varieties and so on... my "gardner" says that this is a different sort of lily.. It is very mild here .. hotest May on record or something.. probably about 23-25 today.. but will get cold soon as it gets dark just after 5:00pm now...
