Lovely sharp image. Based on the notes I would like to see the surrounding area in the ditch. Maybe a bird planted it? Thanks for sharing. Cyn

Thank you so very much! There was a lot of them in the ditch but only made a few close ups.

this is a lovely shot, full of vibrant color. It may well be a wild lily species growing in its natural habitat, although it's hard to tell out of context.

Wonderful photograph of this vibrantly colored lily. The detail and texture within the petals is stunning and the focus on the stamen is superb. Nice job, good techs all round
