Water Lily 2005

The photos here are taken at a pond of Gokurakuji temple located in Hiroshima-city. Water lilies are not in full bloom when I visited there in July 2005, then I enjoy combination of a flower and carp(s) rather than focus on flowers.
This gallery would be upgraded in the near future, hopefully, with better photos.


 
This flowers was lit by sunlight through leaves. A flying lily in the sky! Clouds are not reflection on the water surface but added by dual exposure.
These four photos are combination of a wather lily and carp(s). Position and shape of carp is an essense of photo composition and I took many photos because carps did not move as I wanted.
