Waterlilies, .... show yours !

[f6cvalkyrie]

Hi,

My wife just called me into the garden, and proudly announced that the first waterlily in our garden pond was open !

So, I got the G1 with the Micro-Nikkor 55mm/2.8 and got this shot :

If you have a pond with waterlilies, or know a place where there are some, please share your pics with us !

Have a nice evening,
Rafael

Hre's mine--about 2 weeks ago. Its Texas Dawn, always hardy along with another yellow, Medallion--looks as though we lost several of our older lilies over the winter.

Your Wish ...

Last week, heavy thunderstorms flooded our pond, so we had to completely clean it :thumbdown::thumbdown:

But now, most things have returned to normal, so here's another pic :

During today's lunchbreak, these 2 "large red damselflies" were having fun on my waterlillies :
