The Purple Lily


This purple lily bloomed outside my apartment for about two days before succumbing to the heat and humidity.  But what a gorgeous, albeit, short, life!  It was the brightest among all the other flowers and the largest as well.  The bright yellow pollen danced in the breeze, attracting all kinds of bees and butterflies.  It caught my eye the minute it bloomed and I'm glad I photographed it before it's untimely death.  Hopefully, it's later generations will bloom again as soon as the weather cools slightly!
