    Hmmm, I have to say that I have not seen that many of them when I have been out and about.

    Nice images by the way.

    Nice image, I see a lot of these plants around in gardens and growing on the banks of some of the local creeks where they have been washed down and or dumped there.

    Wow! That first lily image is just beautiful. Good lighting and very sharp where it needs to be.

    Hi there again, well as mentioned before Water Lilies everywhere ... just an hour ago I found a new bush of these coming on in my halve acre House section which I have not noticed before at all. Unfortunately I had only a minute to look at it before torrential Rain started so I was forced back into the house, but something to look forward to Investigating in the next days. rgs

    Hi there, after another Winter Storm I took time out to inspect the new coming up Water Lillie in the back yard! Well, was nice to see that it had survived. Not to forget that this one is in the making, and still not quite in its Pure White state.
    Camera again CANON EOS 650 D with my just newly purchased & only today arrived EF-S 10-18mmm 1:4.5-5..6 IS STM ... taken Handheld.
