[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
After uploading a few shots of waterlily - unopened and semi opened flowers, a few TN friends requested for an opened bloom. So here it is, taken at about 10.30 a.m. It opened and by 12.00 noon it was already closed.
This species is not so pink and the arrangement of the petals are not very close to eacht other.
One thing I noticed at some other lilies, the petals drop quite easily.

Hallo Foozi
We have been away for 3 weeks and I missed out on some lovely images which is a pity, but this striking waterlily with its rich purple colour stole my heart in a flash upon browsing through the gallery. It is well photographed and one can see the details very clearly. I will go back when time permits and see all the others you have mentioned in your note. It is really a pleasure stopping by and appreciate such a lovely image after an absence from the site. Thanks for sharing and best regards.
Anna.
I'll be posting some great images of our Kruger National Park vacation soon.

Hello Foozi,

So this is the star of the show, literally!
Amazing details and the point of view works well to show the subject at its best...
Wonderful colour reproduction and pin sharp details, good 3D feeling!

Greetings,

Hello Foozi Saad
This is a sharp picture, but it seems that colour correction is somewhat wrong, also this flower is always closing during the day time.

Best regards
