Default white flower supermacro

I found this white flower with orange stamen(or pistil maybe) standing among the grass.So i took it with my S3 in supermacro mode.Pity as usual,I don't recognize what flower it is.
I did some color and saturation adjustments in GIMP.
C&C welcome!

There are pink and yellow colours variety also. But I think its better to keep the colour white instead of over do the saturation. Well, just my opinion.

They're Zephyranthes, also known as Rain Lily. The so-called grass are actually their leaves.

Ah,originally it is quite white,I did wb adjustment in GIMP also.And maybe it does not look right since I don't know much about PP,besides it looks a bit over saturated as somebody has noted me.

thank you,Werty.Yes,it is taken in supermacro mode.Most of the times I take supermacro instead of macro using my S3,coz I find the supermacro mode gives better results.

could go closer for a different perspective. with your camera, the tele to isolate the entire flower shouldnt be a problem. Then go to supermacro mode to shoot up to 0cm? =) I love that camera although I dont have one.
