The First Daylily

Last week, I showed a photo of the first of this years showing of the common, orange daylilies out back. Well, the first cultivar daylily has bloomed out front, so here it is.



The photos aren't perfect but they are sort of the way that I want, with the flower pretty well in focus, and the rest of the photo blurry. It did work a little better in the first photo than the second.

I don't do much flower photography, but at least I didn't have to go far to get these.
