The slender water-lily Peeps dreamingly out of the lake; The moon, oppress'd with love's sorrow, Looks tenderly down for her sake. - Heinrich Heine, Book of Songs--New Spring (no. 15, st. 1)
How beautiful. My daughter is currently growing her own lily pads in a small plastic bowl on my kitchen island (the kit was a gift from grandma) but I can't imagine they'll flower in a small bowl and I can't leave standing water around in a bucket outside to help them grow larger (mosquito hazard).
East Gwillimbury is a rural town less than an hour north of Toronto, Canada's largest city.
My family calls me CameraGirl because I take my camera with me wherever I go.

Water lilies are among the most beautiful flowers.

So nice to have photos of them. They will not last long!
Summer sure goes out with a bang.
The water lily is beautiful but the reflection makes it gorgeous!
It may be the last, but it is definitely a beauty! You did a wonderful job of capturing the reflection as well. Double beauty.

Lovely, and the soft brokeh at the back makes it even gentler. Lots of things happening in it too!
That could be an oil painting! So lovely.
