Waterlily, a photo from Sabah, Est

Photographer's Note

Sabah Agricultural Park
A lone waterlily, in the Adaptation Garden Of Sabah Agricultural Park, in Tenom. Waterlily needs 6 hours of sunlight and a quiet water to thrive.

There are about 70 different species of water lilies. These are grouped into: night, tropical and hardy. Night lilies bloom in the night. Tropical lilies can be found in tropical climates and bloom at all times of the day. Hardy lilies are able to withstand most conditions and are the most common.

The water lily has long, stout leaves and long flower stalks. There are usually six petals and six stamen. Water lilies are also able to reproduce by budding. The roots detach and grow into new water lilies. The root of the lily is located in the mud at the bottom of a pond. Many lilies are produced through budding.

Nice. The deep colors and intenese composition make this image very interesting to look at. I would have liked to have seen the DOF a bit larger, though, as the background is a bit soft, but not soft enough to make it into something non-distracting. In situations like this it would be nice to have everything in focus. Apart from this, excellent work.
