Fantastic, Carolyn. The lotus is just gorgeous but then you caught that little bee, too. Hooray for sewage, huh! #267599

Beautiful shot, Carolyn! #1508977

Paul Michko June 23, 2005

Super capture, Carolyn. It almost seems as though the lily is floating in mid-air. #1508993

You have the most amazing ditches where you live, Carolyn ;D
This is just gorgeous - perfect lotus flower and a bee to boot! #1508999

Thanks Janet, Colleen, Gene, Tammy, Bill, Kath, Bobbie and Cliff!!! They bee was an added bonus. I couldn't see him through my viewfinder although I'd seen him flitting around the flower. #1509386

'Bee'utiful, as always, Carolyn. I hope you weren't crawling around on your tummy to get this shot, eh… Well done, my very dear friend - your good friend, Allan #1509513

I was waiting for you to go back here! The clarity and color are stunning and the bee is a wonderful bonus! Gorgeous! -K #1509525

Carolyn M. Fletcher level-classic June 23, 2005

Thanks Allan, Cathy and Kelly. No, the flowers are all at eye level or higher. You have to hold the camera over your head in some cases. There's only certain places you can stand without getting your feet in the sewage. So not necessary to crawl around thank heavens. #1509540
