 While visiting Washington, AR State Park, I was out shooting early one morning a saw the lilies while walking by the old house. I really liked the scene and the morning light was just right. Had to contend with a pretty consistent wind, but managed to get a few good shots and liked this one the best.

Nice colours and focus. Because they are so bright and clear they do become the main subject, but the building in the background doesn't help at all.

A change of composition to keep a green background, or a shallower depth of field to obscure the building more and I would have liked this shot a whole lot more.

good shot. Lilies are nicely separated from the BG. However a tad bland for a FS. 6
