Ah, great shot!

John Burgess म्हणाले...

Is Water Lilly part of the Eli Lilly Pharmaceuticals dynasty? Or is she just a lily?

mesquito म्हणाले...

Too perfect. If you are claiming you took that photo we'll naturally require some proof, Professor.

Unknown म्हणाले...

Interesting shade of blue. Must be a cloudless day up there.

EK म्हणाले...

Monet would approve.

Jason (the commenter) म्हणाले...

EK: Monet would approve.

Needs to be more blurry.

Terrye म्हणाले...

How very pretty.

And then one day things weren't quite so fine
I fell in love with Lily
I asked my dad where Lily I could find
He said, 'Son, now don't be silly'

@John Thanks for the subtle spelling prompt. Corrected.

@EK It's a very un-Monet water lily. Too clear!

@mesquito I know it has an irritating perfect-y look. I apologize! I did take the picture.

I was testing my new monopod.

NYT clarifies DeLay's conduct:

"But many of Mr. DeLay's actions remain legal only because lawmakers have chosen not to criminalize them."

Simply lovely.

That shade of blue is so wonderful. I have trouble naming color shades. What are some guesses as to what that shade would be? Azure, maybe?

Chip Ahoy म्हणाले...

This photo warms the cockles of my heart. El loto es mi flor más preferida del mundo. It's everywhere in Egyptian and I suppose that's an obsession.

Why, just yesterday I cranked out a thank-you note that featured them. Care to have a peek?

Chip Ahoy म्हणाले...

That's Egyptian art.

jungatheart म्हणाले...

Neat, Chip.

Taking the time to delurk to congratulate you on a beautiful picture.

BJM म्हणाले...

So which monopod did you get?

Back on this thread two weeks ago, Saint Croix asked, "Who on the right has attacked civil unions?"

Beth and I gave a couple of examples. Here's another one: Wisconsin Family Action, who have filed a lawsuit challenging Wisconsin's Domestic registry program.

Leland म्हणाले...

Wow, that shot should win some money.

Big Mike म्हणाले...

You make me nostalgic. I put in a lily pond at my former residence for my wife. It looked very nice, but normal lilies close up before 6:00 so we needed to add a night-blooming tropical that I could look at when I got home after work.

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...

@BJM This one.

I really should get a tripod. I could see that. The monopod is something I want to use as a walking stick on hikes with my little camera stuck on top for the occasional and easy shot.

The big Nikon with a large lens (70-300) was a bit much.
