Tropical water lily

We’ve been to these aquatic gardens many times but never knew they had pools with tropical water lilies. A friend had sent me a picture from them, and there was a sign for “Display pools,” so we finally found them, a bit out of the way from everything else. The park ranger said they usually bloom in August but that what they had now was it for the year since they hadn’t been able to get any new seed.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

So lovely. Terrific how you captured the colorful stamen peeking out from the petals.

Nice Lily composition tack sharp and nice softness in the background.
The color is beautiful and the 300 shines again.
