I came across red Calla Lilies at the local grocery store where they also sell flowers. I had not seen these before, only white and yellow ones. I love the deep red to crimson colour of these beautiful trumpet shaped flowers.

Four blooms I picked by the roadside in a marshy area.

These calla lillies were photographed early in the morning, in my garden. I use my cedar hedge as a background.

15 years ago, we got married on this special day...

"Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage." - Lao Tzu

Here is where the little Calla quilt is at the moment. LOTS still to do but at least the basics are done - for the moment!

Captured: Smithtown, NY.

Winter is in full swing here on Long Island, so I decided to stay indoors and try my hand at some flower photography.

Flowers are not really my strong suit, but the cold weather is offering me a perfect opportunity to get in some practice. The first in this set is a calla lily that was sporting some beautiful curves, colors and textures. I tired to keep it simple, and just focus on the flower's best attributes.

CALLA LILLY #2

Olga

Die Drachenwurz (Calla palustris), auch Sumpf-Calla, Sumpfkalla, Schlangenwurz, Schlangenkraut, Sumpf-Schlangenwurz oder Schweinsohr genannt, ist die einzige Pflanzenart der Gattung Calla und der Unterfamilie Calloideae innerhalb der Familie der Aronstabgewächse (Araceae).

Not true lily, although related.

Not for everyone! I know...

I love 'abstracting', letting you see pure shape.

...giving or designed to give pleasure through beauty.

They are extravagantly elegant and seductive.

Have a lovely day and thank you for your comments, M, (*_*)

Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment and fav my images.

Enjoy the day.

This calla lily in the Madeira botanic gardens caught my eye as it basked in the sunshine while the background was more in shadow.

...two too cool lilies.
