Here is a picture of a Lily nicknamed Naked Lady because it has no leaves. It’s also called Surprise Lily or Magic Lily. Its proper name is Belladonna Lily.
I thought I would post this picture I took recently and use the name to get more hits from Google. (smiley would go here)
And more importantly it goes so well with Scripture.
Matthew 6:28-34 NLT
And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, 29 yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. 30 And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith?
31 “So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ 32 These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. 33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
34 “So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.

Very nice.What equipment were you using?
I really love the gorilla marketing aspect of this post. Now that you’re going to be drawing all of those folks looking for inappropriate content to your site, you’ll have to share the gospel with them.
Stan, just a good point and shoot type digital camera with manual control but with a bit of diffused flash off-camera. I’ve been experimenting with this and it’s working well. There was also some sun coming from the side which gives it the shimmer. I had my wife hold something black behind it. How amazing God’s creation is.
Shaun, I was thinking the same thing. I would probably have to post something even more inappropriate to draw anybody in.

Jeff, I love the photo and the concept behind it. Not bad with the camera, I say.
wow….shameless.. conniving… downright intriguing… i like it.
Love the picture — but I did not even think about the market mentioned above. That’s because I visit often and know you post sanctified thoughts.
Bless you.
Somebody searched for “nakedlady” and came here. Right now it’s listed fifth on Google. Somebody else searched for “nakes lady” and this blog is 10th. Go figure.

Jeff,I really need to get out my camera and go shooting. You may have inspired me.
It’s so much easier and more fun than when using film in the old days which I used to do as a vocation.

Jeff, great shot and thanks for the tips!
Thanks. I hope to see more of your photography.
