Another Asiatic lily here, though I don't remember the cultivar. This
was taken 3-stops down at f4, and at about the minimum focus distance of the 50mm f1.4 lens. One of the things that reviewers often comment on in lenses, which can be seen in this image, is the quality of the out-of-focus highlights. You can see those as the bright spots in the upper right of this picture, and they were caused by the sun reflecting from rain droplets. One of the things you pay for in an expensive lens is perfectly smooth and round OOF highlights, while inexpensive lenses will often have lopsided or obviously geometric-shaped highlights. Here the highlights are not perfectly round, but they are "not bad" either.
