What a lovely tabblo and great shots. I love this flower. I also like your story about your friend at work. How appropriate to get anniversary flowers every year that are called I'll Still Marry Ya :)

Thanks Reta !!

TAMMY - Alstromeria has such a wide variety of colors. I did not even take all of the colors they come in.

MARCI - It makes it much easier for her husband to order her the flowers ... by that little sentence reminding him of the name. I always tease her about it.

Umair - Thank you !! This is such a LONG LASTING flower. Unlike roses that die so quickly, the alstroemeria will stay looking beautiful for more then a week.

PAM - I'm glad you liked them. :))))

Thank you Woody and Dee. They had buckets of Alstroemeria for sale ... so I had a chance to capture a wide variety of the colors they are grown in. There are still many more ... but this is just a few of the colors.

Grazie Antonio. Ancora sto imparando mólto circa la presa delle immagini, ma vedo le immagini che avete preso e provo ad imparare dalla gente che conosce che cosa stanno facendo.
