Chinese Lotus Flower is know as the gentleman flower because it grows out of the mud pure and unstained. The Chinese use every part of this flower. We ate some of it's seeds very interesting.
Went to Lake Powell with Val and his family. While there Veloy took us on a photo shoot. We got up in the middle of the night and took photos of the Milky Way. I used his lense and he helped me in Lightroom and this is what I got.
