California's Big Sur coast is known for its breathtaking seascapes. But a tiny, hidden ocean-side valley smothered with Calla Lilies was my favorite location. This shot is dedicated to my wife, Anita, who puts up with me and my passion for photography!

My original intention was for macros of this calla lily, but I couldn't find any angle that I liked. So I decided to try some panning with my macro instead.
These enduring beauties are very easy to crochet. Crochet a whole bouquet of these Calla Lilies in same color or in different hues and display them in your house or office. No need to water them or worry about them withering. They are here to stay :) You can also make just one stalk, tie it to a gift with a lovely big bow and bring warmth and smile to your recipient :) Calla Lilies are very popular for wedding bouquets as they signify magnificence and beauty.
Each stalk measures about 10.5 inches (26.7cm) excluding the pointed tip.
Flower photo enhanced and painted in Photoshop Elements. Best appreciated when viewed in Large Size.
This Crochet calla lily could be an elegant adornment to clothing, hair or add a decorative touch to your home. This flower is available in any size. I can also add stalks to make bouquets for weddings etc.
Crocheted with waxed thread, the calla holds its shape well- it can even be squashed and reshaped! It will be sent with a bobby pin, which can easily be changed to suit your needs.
