what a delicious color - really something to brighten winter. I love the way amaryllis always bloom just in time ... just when I'm feeling like winter is going to drag on forever, here comes this cheerful, gorgeous colorful beauty. Nice photo with the sunlight coming through the petals. It's a wonderful portrait of the flower.

Thanks, everyone. Actually, there was no sunlight whatsoever--just cold grey sky outside.

Everything about this photo is breathtaking. I don't know how you do it, but you've inspired me to try! Backlighting makes it look so intricate.
