At the botanical garden...

[Parak]

As I walked into one of the tropical hothouses with my trusty Olympus C4000, I saw a large earthenware pot by a wall, filled with almost completely black water. And in the middle, all alone, was this:

I wish I wrote down the name of it :(

That's lovely Parak! ;)

What botanical garden?

[Parak]

I have the original, 2288x1712 for all 3. If you want, I can give you whatever size you need. I'll probably run some noise removal stuff on them first though...ick, I should have used a different ISO setting :|

Is this (http://www.thekrib.com/Plants/Plants/Nymphaea.html) it?

Pretty sure it's one of these (http://plantsdatabase.com/showpicture/30295/)

Vini, it's the Brooklyn Botanical Garden. I snapped up around 200 pictures, might post a few more good ones :p

Looks similiar, but not quite. The one in the link looks like it has a stem coming out of the water, while this was floating on the surface. Also the center of the petal is a bit different :/
