Paul, around my house we seem to be having a banner year for Trillium -
haven't seem so many in over 22 years. They're called Large-Flowered
Trillium (Trillium grandiflorum)
The background in your shot is distracting to me and I try to get around
that by shooting down low and somewhat up to the flower. I like the nice
even lighting.

Trillium is the Michigan state flower, but it's an endangered species in
our state. It's not all that rare, but it is easily disturbed, and I
assume there's a lot less of it than there once was. I've always been fond
of its delicate shape and fragile nature. Several dozen plants grow along
the garden trail next to my house, and I always have to be careful not to
step on them. Even raking the leaves away can kill them.
