Last (and only) one standing

The lilies and daylilies on Capitol Hill were finished more than a month ago, but I found this one lily at the Franciscan Monastery in Northeast DC. I bet it’s one of the last ones in the city.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly unsharp.

Nice shot. Lucky there are no deer there. Ours get 'mowed to 1" by those devils.
