Floral Friday – FF#86 – Water Lily


Whilst visiting Bateman House, in East Sussex, there are water features which host the most beautiful water lilies, I’ve ever seen.

A photograph of a pink water lily photograpjed at Bateman’s in East Sussex.

Graceful, white petals peaked amongst their green pads, each with a vivid yellow eye at their centre. Submerged in their basin of cool, still water, their colours seem to enhance the surrounding sounds of nature.

Taking a few moments to capture this tranquillity of beauty has allowed for me to appreciate the beauty of the everyday. Life is made up of little moments and I’m thankful that I’ve been able to cherish this one.

Below is a list of the entries for FF #85 Floral Friday Photography Challenge. Be sure to check the wonderful floral images for the challenge.

Have a great weekend everyone and happy Friday!!!

    1. We kept koi once, I must have spent God knows what money on waterlilies for that pond. Put them in one day… by the morning they were destroyed by the koi. 😀 😀 😀

  8. Pristine! Whenever I see waterlilies they are usually meeting places for the local insect population.
