Calla Lilies or World Domination?

Since I've made a few sales on Zazzle of artwork using Calla Lily photos I've taken, I decided a few weeks ago to do another series. Don't get me wrong, I love to create artwork and I do like Calla lilies. I think they are quite elegant.

I did however make a little joke in Facebook that perhaps it would be great to really have many artworks from the 164 or so photos I took that time to have a strong presence for the keyword phrase calla lily at Zazzle. Of course I'd probably need a few hundred images to really make a dent not just a few dozen.

Yesterday, I bought a few more and some roses and I experimented taking photos of the two kinds of flowers together. I had never tried that before, but I like to experiment even if the results are less than spectacular You'll have to wait a while to see those new artworks since I'm still processing the previous photos, but I wanted to share a few of my favorites from the first batch of Calla Lily artwork. Notice I say artwork not photo. These are finished works not just photos copied from the camera.
