If you’re surrounded by snow and ice, or sick and tired of rain, here are some torch lilies at sunset to warm you. . . .
Also called Red Hot Poker.
Hope your week’s going well so far. . . .

That last one is a brilliant photo.
they are warming indeed.
We had snow all afternoon, afer a few days of very warm weather. They were huge snowflakes, quite lovely.
Oh, I love it when the flakes are huge…so fun to catch them on your face. I’m almost missing snow, Caroline.
Wow — the colors! Great photography; in what season were these photographs taken?
Thank you! I took these last month.
so so pretty! They make me warmer on the chilly day we have today in LA
Thank you, Marina.
It was cool and damp here today too. The weather has been kind of extreme for California this winter.
You’re right – these pictures make me feel a lot warmer. The colors are so tropical they radiate warmth. I needed that! I was snowing here today.
Glad to help, Jackie. I miss snow just a little tiny bit.
Forgot to tell you–any camera shop should be able to develop your film. I was kind of shocked to see what they charged me (almost a dollar per print!). Happy to stay with digital.
Thanks for the tip about the film. I remember when the prints were about $.10 each. I guess I’m dating myself.
Haha, me too. I KNOW they weren’t even close to a dollar apiece in the old days. Sheesh. Luckily, there were only six shots on the roll. (The camera was an old, broken point-and-shoot.)
I’m not surrounded by snow, but I still love these shots. The colors and the bokeh are gorgeous.
Thanks so much!
There is a promise in those pics, Carole. Thanks for this shot of brilliance to beat off the February blahs!1
Anytime, Cheryl.
I never knew their name. Lovely
Thanks.
I knew red hot pokers, but didn’t know they came in other colors.
*sigh*.
I’d give anything for summer to hurry along.
It was cool and damp here today, so I’m kind of longing for summer now too. Thanks for dropping by.
Yup! Just what I needed.
Cool.
