Nicely done. We have several that grow in my backyard. They are not easy to photograph.

Absolutely gorgeous! I have always wanted to see one in the wild.And your photo is so good I feel like I could reach out and touch it.

Thank You! These are one of my favorite flowers but can be hard to find if you don't already know a place in the forest where they grow.
