I wonder if you are No1 in flower photography here at Aminus3. I wont be surprised if you are.

@Shuva Brata Deb: You are very kind Shuva! But there is such an enormous amount of talent here at Aminus3 and it has become so difficult now to even sample some posts out of the wide variety presented here. I am very proud to be part of this community :)
Thanks for your visit!

Im gegenwärtigen Vergangenes

Ros' und Lilie, morgentaulich,
Blüht im Garten meiner Nähe,
Hintenan, bebuscht und traulich
Steigt der Felsen in die Höhe,

Und mit hohem Wald umzogen,
Und mit Ritterschloß gekrönet,
Lenkt sich hin des Gipfels Bogen,
Bis er sich dem Tal versöhnet.

Und da duftet' s wie vor alters,
Da wir noch von Liebe litten,
Und die Saiten meines Psalters
Mit dem Morgenstrahl sich stritten.

1ste 3 Strofen, W.A. von Goethe (West-östlicher Divan)

Dieses Gedicht fiel mir ein wenn ich deine Lilie sah. Sehr schön!
