Flower from new Nikon D5600

Nikon dangled the carrot by having the sale for Fathers day, and Mothers day for that matter. I have a P900 that I love, but it is what it is. I also have a D3000 that I picked up at a pawn shop for my first DSLR. I really do love the LIVE screen that the D3000 does not have and with my eyesight and glasses, I just have a hard time focussing anything through the EVF. Back to the sale, GAS attack, I bought the Nikon D5600 from Sam's Club with the standard 2 kit lens, Nikon carry bag, extra Nikon battery and Nikon's 2 years extended warranty. 3 years of total warranty.

So I was coming home from work the other day and saw a bunch of flowers in front of the county office building. I stopped and took a bunch of pics. I like this one the most.

What is the name of this?

The common name is "Tiger Lilly". Lilium lancifolium. Very nice capture.

Nice shot. I own a D5000 just for the articulating live view screen. Old knees and stiff back thank me for buying it every time I make a ground level shot. It works great when I'm doing photo copy work too.

I feel your pain CPO, I've got the bad knees also. So yes the articulating screen I have found is a must.
