Fantastic, Carolyn. The lotus is just gorgeous but then you caught that little bee, too. Hooray for sewage, huh! #267599Donald K. Cherry June 23, 2005
Beautiful shot, Carolyn! #1508977Paul Michko June 23, 2005
Super capture, Carolyn. It almost seems as though the lily is floating in mid-air. #1508993Marsha S. Smith June 23, 2005

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. #1509386Allan L. Whitehead June 23, 2005
'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 #1509513Cathy Gregor June 23, 2005
How beautiful, Carolyn.Kelly Abernathy June 23, 2005
I was waiting for you to go back here! The clarity and color are stunning and the bee is a wonderful bonus! Gorgeous! -K #1509525Carolyn M. Fletcher 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. #1509540Sharon E. Lowe June 23, 2005
