SATURDAY SELF-CHALLENGE
7 JULY 2018
"SUMMER, FAVOURITE ASPECT OF THE SEASON"

One of my favourite aspects of summer is the opportunity to take photos of Water Lilies :-) But, most of my shots seem to finish up in the Recycle Bin!

The best location is, probably, the 'Lily Pond' within the grounds of Ascott House. Not too far away from where we live :-)

There is also a risk of toppling into the pond :-)

Ooooh, so pretty, Roger!

I thought to do this too but our water lilies aren't very robust just yet. I'm glad you didn't fall in the water. ;-)

Beautiful! I have some in my pond too. Yesterday I also had my cat in my pond. I have no idea what he was doing. Clearly needed to cool down. Made me quite hot!
