Apartment Therapy ~ Look Out For Lilies

When I am home, I keep my heart and my camera’s aperture OPEN!

And the result is often very satisfying…at least to my self.

Those things that are mundane and often just passed by, I try and focus on them.

Today I have at least four vases of fresh cut lilies. Of course the red lilies are from V and T (you know who you are!).

Of course I am not CLEVER, and my photos are not visually STUNNING. But I do feel giddy each time I do something I thought was even a wee CREATIVE.

I am a gobbler for good things. And LILIES apart from being sturdy and long lasting flowers, also pucker up your home. Somehow they always work.

I know not all photographs have to be a reason for high emotional metaphor. But what the heck, so here I am sharing some pictures I clicked  a little while ago.

I was also told by the florist once, that the stamens should be removed so that the blooms last longer.

Not sure if you can see the little drop of nectar here.
