I love these images, especially the first. Great composition. I especially like the black background. It really makes the yellow blossoms stand out!

Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful flower. But it is an Alstroemeria, not a Freesia.

Lou is correct. The flower is an Alstroemeria, most likely a "Dutch" hybrid grown for the cut flower trade.
Thanks, Lou.
