Description
On this chilly, winterlike day it warms my heart to look back at images from this past summer. This gorgeous daylily is called "Janice Brown" and this radiant beauty seems to be glowing from within.
The daylily is such a special flower - so beautiful, vibrant, and full of life, but only for one day. I think the ephemeral quality of these lovely blossoms is one of the reasons I love them so much and always want to take the time to enjoy them while we have them. Many daylilies also fade quickly in hot weather, so it's best to photograph them in the morning, something I find challenging but well worth the effort
