Three Lilies

this was taken after the below, with the 35mm with the 35mm 1.8 lens. Very difficult time getting the fill flash not to over expose.

The caption was, her beauty lingered far beyond her beauty, or her beauty remained far beyond her beauty, or maybe the memory of her beauty lingered far beyond her beauty. These three Cana or Calla lilies from the front yard pond have been inside over the kitchen sink, formerly on the dining room table. Now they have returned outside. I find them more appealing in this brown and white state. In the pristine white state, they are much more difficult to get a decent photograph. Too much white. We all need some blemishes and flaws, it makes us much more interesting. White is bland.
I held these up by the stem in front of the Canon S95 on a tripod. I clustered all three as well, but the individual shots seemed better.

 And the cluster of three.
 Which do you prefer? Separate or together?
