This was my wife's favorite flower in or garden. She passed away 4 years ago after 49 years of marriage. This photo was the result of a challenge from a photo group I belong to. The challenge was to produce an image that meaningful to you. The background is one of my wife's blouses that I have since given to charity. The setup was my Nikon D850 with my Sigma 105mm lens with Lensbaby Omni filters attached. Thank you for all the nice reactions.
