Redirect to original
Description The pollen-producing reproductive organ of a flower, usually consisting of a filament and an anther.

I almost didn't use this at all. Then I almost submitted it to scraps. And finally, I decided I rather liked it. The focus isn't everything that I wanted, but you know what? I quite enjoy the colors

**Fullview, please.

This is the same stargazer as in one of my previous deviations: The Stargazer Lily

EDIT (November 25, 2007): I've submitted a beta version and put this in scraps. I like how this one has the blue of the sky, but it still bothers me that the focus is messed up.

Thanks!

Oh, really? Your class flower? That's interesting...my older sister graduated this year and at graduation all the students had stargazers! So maybe it was her class flower, too

Interesting angle.
I wish the one anther wasn't cut out though.

Yes, yes. Sadly one is cut out and one is out of focus

I'm trying to find a good camera to save up for, especially one that takes very good and clear super macros... and I came across this deviation. This is so beautiful! I love the angle and the shot. What camera did you use for this?

Marita-Covarrubias In reply to BrokenApollo [2007-10-25 20:49:46 +0000 UTC]

(so very sorry for the extremely late reply)

Thank you for your lovely comments

I used my Canon PowerShot A540 for this.

Thank you. Yes, the focus is a little off and that saddens me...I almost didn't submit this because of that.

mulletrobz [2007-08-19 23:42:36 +0000 UTC]

Too bad that brown bud (or whatever that thing is) at the front got a bit blurred. But aside from that minor problem, I actually like this lily close-up.

Marita-Covarrubias In reply to mulletrobz [2007-08-19 23:53:10 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I know! Doesn't that just stink That's what I meant by the focus not "being everything I wanted" in the artist comments.

Thank you for the comment
