 The Lotus.
Amazing flower and maybe more amazing is the
shower head (as I call it), after the leaves have dropped.

Taken at 300mm and full crop.

Yes, I did get out - they had chains across the parking lot - I tried though ;)

This looks like a 3D piece of art, created by the play of light and shadows on the petals. Wonderful!
