Cotton-Candy Lily

A lily that looks like cotton candy, with the sun behind it

This is one of the most interesting types of lilies that I have ever seen, probably because the colors remind me of Cotton-Candy. I thought this photo was especially unique because the sun was almost directly behind the flower, giving it a partially filtered look.
