Water Lily 1

Wow... I found a beautiful Botanical Garden in Lincoln, Nebraska today. It's right across from the local Zoo. It's amazing. There are trees, numerous flowers and even ponds. So I thought I would share some of what I saw today.
In all of the ponds, which for some reason are above ground, I found many Water Lilies, in white, pink, and purple. Well, I like white ones, so...

O.K. Why this one? Well, It's in profile and was reaching towards the sun.
