    What a beauty! And great photos too. :)There's a very small hint of colour peeking through in my garden now. Not much, but enough to heighten my spirits during this bleak period.

    Thank you everyone. I'm glad that I took the pictures today because it just got very heavy rain and the flower been ruined by it. :(

    Anyway, as requested by "gardenstew", here are the pictures of the fully open lotus I took this afternoon before the rain.
