This lily is much too gorgeous to be called a ditch lily. You have photographed it very well with spot on focus, this image is sharp and clear, exposure is perfect, the orange tones in the petals and with the bits of yellow and the golden pollen heads at the top of the orange stamens appear natural.
You have brought out every detail in this lily and it is coming forward from the black background in such a beautiful way.
Well composed and presented!
Very best wishes to you in this contest!

Your mixed media is superb. The Lily is beautiful. Your photo is perfect focused and exposed and has good depth. I enjoy the sharpness of detail and texture and the realism of color. The dark background emphasizes the Lily profoundly. The lily is excellent placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

You have indeed pictured this beautiful orange lily well, and the light is falling on it in such a lovely way. I also like a lot the all dark background, because this makes the lily stand out in an excellent way.

The photo is pin sharp and it is indeed clear and well defined details to be seen both in the petals and the stamens of the lily. The exposure is spot on.

The tight cropping is perfect, and the lily has got such a fine placement within the frame. I think this is a truly lovely and well taken photo Willie, and with an excellent DOF. I wish you luck with the contest.

Wow it's incredible that you can find these flowers in a ditch. It is so gorgeous. I love the colors. The black background is perfect and I also love the shadowed leaves in the background making this look more mysterious. Good luck in the contest
