[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Nymphaea alba, also known as the European White Waterlily, White Lotus, or Nenuphar, in the Greek spoken language nufaro,
is an aquatic flowering plant of the family Nymphaeaceae.
It grows in water from 30-150 cm deep and likes large ponds and lakes. The leaves can be up to thirty cm in diameter and they take up a spread of 150 cm per plant. The flowers are white as the name suggests, and they have many small stamens inside.(wikipedia)

I am in a hurry I know, it is early in order to they are bloomed, the photograph is last year's,
however the type is to disappearance in the lake Kerkini, each year the meadows dwindles dramatically,
i hope that also this year I see again this beauty, I deposit this scene.

Lake Kerkini is a important and variegated water biotope, however is also a important water saver for agricultural reasons,
the continuous fluctuation of level of water has disappearred thousands acres from white and yellow nenuphars, that existed up to year 2002,today remain minimal square metres.

thank you for your good and important criticisms

have a nice day

Hi Nasos,
lovely captutre of this lily. The pure white petals is brilliantly captured and the balance is excellent. it is hard to capture and balance the white sespecially whern the light is bit strong.
Well presented and I like the droplets on the petals very much.

Foozi

Hi Nasos!

I like the simplicity of your picture very much. The flower is beatiful, and you have well put it on stage. The droplets add to the value of the picture and I hope that they won't totally disappear from this lake.

Kind regards
