A Callis Lilly

I shot this Lilly during a recent trip to Yosemite. Wildflowers are stunning. I often miss them because I do not pay enough attention to the details of my environment. I was fortunate enough to meet a tour guide who kept pointing out the different types of wild flowers in her endless descriptions of what Yosemite looked like without all the trees on the valley floor.

My wife and I stopped on a ridgeline meadow for this sample. It was worth it. There were thousands of these running out into a marshy meadow. It was beautiful.

I’m not sure about the yellow flower in the background. Does anybody know what it is?
