Anther and Filament of stamen

Picture 17 - This is a picture of a flower with its filament sticking out. The stalk is the filament and the anther bears pollen. Each stamen consists of an anther and filament. This flower was found in a local park.
Picture 18 - This is another picture of the anther and filament of a stamen. The stamen is the male structures of the flower. The filament can't really be seen clearly here, but the long white stalks coming out of the flower and its petals is the filament and the anther is at the other end of the filament. This flower was found in the same park I found the white flower in.
