Today's Flowers # 66

My friend Luiz from Brazil does the Today's Flowers Meme, check it out. Come and join with your flower photos. Sunday at 2 GMT is the post time.

Today I'm going to show some photos from the summer time. These are some Peonies at Fish Creek. I enjoyed the reflection.
This is a Water Lily bed that I captured from the shore.
I think the Water Lily is a great flower but the white is hard to capture.
The flowers nestle in among the greenery and put on a great show.
You can see a lot of great flowers above.

Whites and reds are two nemesis colors for me. It looks like you held the line on these photos. I like the far shot of the water lily the best.

Lovely shots of the water lily!
It is a good thing to have an archive of flower shots when the winter is approaching! :)
