Today's Flowers

This is my post for  Today's Flowers

During our stop in Bermuda we took a private guided tour of the island. We visited many of the highlights of Bermuda. Our guide showed us a little extra, one extra stop was a privately owned garden. The pond and waterlilies were beautiful.


I have always loved waterlilies and the yellow ones are just gorgeous.

I was trying to capture the dragonfly on the pink waterlily one below.


The pond was design like a map of Bermuda... A  very cool idea and a neat pond.  Bermuda has a lot of islands connected by bridges.

I hope you enjoyed my post for Today's Flowers please click on the link to see many more beautiful flowers.
Thanks to the hosting group of Santili, Denise, Pupo and Sandy. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you take the time to enjoy the flowers and that your Sunday is wonderful.

The water lilies are beautiful, even if the dragonfly wouldn't cooperate. And such an interesting pond shape. Love your header shot.

My dad used to grow water lilies in large urns with tiny fish to eat the mosquito larva, your photos reminded me of my childhood.
