Spectators of light
This photograph also appears in my 2009 Calendar
Macro of Tiger lily in the evening sun.
The light in this photo comes from the descending late afternoon sun behind the bud. It was so strong at this one moment that it created the glow you see emitted from within the flower.
I took this photo from the sidewalk along Peachtree Dunwoody RD in Atlanta, Georgia.
Now available in a larger print
