White Lotus

I don't know how many more opportunities I'll have to get to the lotus gardens this year, so I arrived when they opened today, even with the heat and humidity.  There were less cars in the parking lot than my previous visits, which I was thrilled to see, especially since the gardens were mentioned last night on one of the local news broadcasts, as a destination for those who want to get out of the house.  I'm usually partial to the pinker blooms, but this white beauty caught my eye today.  
Thank you for the lovely comments on my butterfly yesterday.  I'm sure enjoying the classic summer photo subjects.  Have a great day!
