Pretty in Pink

(for those of you who are interested in seeing my San Francisco trip images, I have uploaded 10 pictures in this batch [219 in the past few weeks]. Thanks everyone for your comments and your visits to my photostream! I hope you enjoy the show!) (Oh, and yes, I know there are really too many pictures to be uploading at one time but I have too many images I want to put into my Flickr stream so it just can't be helped!)

While I was walking around my old neighborhood, I was overwhelmed at all the subjects to photograph. This beautiful lily provided me with the perfect opportunity for pistils surrounded by blush pink!

By the way, for those of you who may not know, there is a very fun, free Flickr competition site which you might like to take part in. It's called FlickrDuel and features dozens of ongoing competitions, or duels every day. You can enter your pictures into many different categories and vote on contests too. It's another way to enjoy your photography!

This image was taken during my trip to San Francisco during September 12-15, 2011.
