Garden photographs

I took the following two photographs in my back garden.

The first is a Day Lily and my favourite of the two for it's bright striking colours. - For this photograph the Shutter Speed was 1/60 sec and the Aperture was set at 5.6.

The photograph of the rose is my favourite compositionally, and I cheated by putting the water droplets on myself to help make the picture more interesting. - The shutter speed for this photograph was 1/30 sec and the aperture was the same as the day lilly at 5.6.
