A Single White Lily

My buddy Ben doesn't understand flower photography. As in why people take pictures of flowers. To be honest, neither do I. But I do enjoy taking them. Once I owned a decent digital camera, I started noticing them a lot more, for one thing. Western Washington is practically lousy with Rhododendron flowers, but I never noticed them until I was walking around one day with my camera looking for something to shoot.

But this is a simple lily flower that I found one day at Marymoor park in Redmond. I'll admit that it's a pretty basic shot, but it still stands out for me.

Edited 21 July: At first, I thought it was a lotus flower, but have since learned that it is a water lily.
