Can anyone I.D. this lily?

West Caldwell, NJ(Zone 6b)

I found this lily on someone's slide show of flowers, they didn't identify it (it was a neighbor's), but I'm sure the blue-purple tinge on the back of the blooms has to be a trick of the camera.

I looked through all the lily plant files, the closest I found was Golden Splendor:

Could this be it? There couldn't be one with that much bluish color in it, or I MUST have it! :)

I think you are correct with your ID. I believe the bluish tint is just a result of conditions when the photo was taken

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

I color corrested your photo in Photoshop to remove some of the blue.
Rarely are the plant colors true from a nursery. This one had too much blue.
This picture is a comparison of your lily and my Golden Splendor.
I dont think they are the same as your inside petal color is more melon.But I wouldnt stake my life on that ID.
As you can see Golden Splendor has the burgundy color on the back of the petals.
