I asked my DH to take pictures of two daylilies today for me. When I uploaded them, the size of each picture was over 40 inches! So by cropping and reducing the size, the pictures have the "jaggies."

In this next picture, you will see a piece of one petal missing. That's because a grasshopper was sitting on the blossom, and I tried to grab his leg. I took a piece of petal along with it!

I like the big yellow washed eye. It should improve by next season as it matures.
