I have taken thousands of photos of waterlilies, most of them awash with the gentle light of the Florida sun hovering low in the morning sky. Usually the waterlilies bloom parallel to the surface of the water, but this one was standing perpendicular to the water – so it was backlit by the morning sun. I got down low on the paved walk (not easy for this aging body) because it felt so special for me.

A great find! Usually I see them “floating” on the water.

A stunning capture, Pat. I saw a meme the other day which said something like, “After a certain age, if you get down on the ground, you’d better have a plan for getting up again.” 😅

LOL – that’s funny, Sylvia. And it is probably why I don’t get down very often.

Oh…I could get down easy enough…but the getting up part might take awhile. 🙂 Another fine photo.

Good for you getting down there!
I’m thinking of purchasing a collapsible stool for flower photography but then I would still have to be able to get up and down from that. lol

I saw a woman with a really nice one but had the same thought. Good thing we can laugh about it, Dawn.
