2 Calla flowers from a Sussex garden

I planted these set of Calla Lilies early winter of 2008. Happy to see the flowers in 3 months :)

Si, lo so: sto diventando un po' monotematica con tutti i miei fiori_su_sfondo_nero...

So elegant. I tried for a dutch angle on this one. (Dinner Bay Park, Mayne Island, BC)

In this view of the calle lily I hardened the edges a bit and upped the saturation to give it a bit more punch.

I haven't posted any flowers in a while and I really missed them. More to come.

no, not southern hemisphere - just about 6 months late in posting! Shots from the garden this past spring (2014)

I took this photo by laying flat on the ground at the Edinburgh Botanical Garden and aiming through a mass of leaves. Worth the effort, I think.

Since it's been snowing like crazy (as you can see on the few pictures I took this morning) I have decided to play with color today. A friend brought these for me, knowing how much I love flowers and I have been dying to get some shots of them before I kill them... (that's what happened to my poor beautiful orchid - I am afraid it is dead ;(.. or as close to it as can get..). So here they are, a little pretty calla lilies. There was still sun shining and a hope of spring in the air, when I photographed these... *sigh*

Calla Lily

[Calla_lily41205]

Calla lilies were first imported from South Africa to the Americas in the mid-nineteenth century.

The waxy white blooms and spear-headed leaves of the cally lily began to appeal to American artists shortly after its importation. In the early twentieth century, the cally lily began to enjoy a heightened popularity especially in the 1920's and 1930's when it became a darling subject of painters and photographers.

Thus, the white blooms and spear-headed leaves of the calla lily became a symbol of radiant beauty and sophistication.
