Description
This water lily was in perfect bloom. Water lilies in any stage of blooming are beautiful. The purple color of this exotic flower just popped out at me. When I see something so perfect, it's difficult shooting only a few images. It's more difficult choosing the very best and deleting the rest. The color of this image was what got my choice.
