Doug - thank you. They were all weighted down by the rain but I thought it made them more interesting that way. #171170

Just beautiful, Sharon. I've always wanted to photograph a lotus blossom and have never been able to find one. This is gorgeous. So delicate and I love the raindrops!

Beautiful shot Sharon. I like the water drops on the petals. Very cool!!! #171307

Sharon E. Lowe August 18, 2003

Judith, Carolyn, and Charlene - thanks so much for your nice comments. I found them in China at Epcot (Walt Disney World in Florida for those without young children or who didn't grow up with Mickey Mouse). It was a very rainy day so my husband and daughter went back to the hotel while I dodged the raindrops to get some photos. It was the first time I've actually been able to really explore the World Showcase area of Epcot and it was great fun, even in the rain. #171349
