I’d long been interested in seeing the giant water lilies in St. Louis, and on Tuesday I had my chance. The following photos were taken at the Lily Ponds at Tower Grove Park. It’s fascinating how the individual lily pads are connected to one central “root.” The flowers, the lilies in question, are simply gorgeous.
Many more of these are visible at flickr.

I love those amazing quiche shaped lily pads – so surreal.
