    Very nice. I agree with Binnur on both counts.

    Thank you Binnur, Dan, and David for your comments. Here is the same flower the following day

    A slight change in the lighting angle (i.e. I move the plant)

    All four are very nice, but I really like the lighting on the 4th shot. As others have said, I also look forward to daily updates on these flowers!

    Re: Red Amaryllis Flower Bud

    Thank you Binnur and Izzie for your comments/feedback. I did not have any room on the top - but, I can "fix" that with Photoshop. I am not happy with this image as the POV is slightly upward - I should have raised the tripod head a tad. I'll fix that with subsequent shots.

    Re: Red Amaryllis Flower Bud

    I got distracted with a few other things/chores, so I have not posted the subsequent day's images - I did find time to shoot them. So here is the next day, the blooms are starting to open up

    Same here...Just like Alan's shots of the same flower in his garden, this is beautiful too...Looks like a prettier variety.
