LNC - Lotus National Convention

Found at the Jerusalem Botanical Gardens. The life cycle of the blossoms is relatively short...

however the leaf and plant material remain. Then, these dry out and sink into the pond.

 

Nikon D90, AF-S Nikkor 55-200 VR. Sepia seemed right for the 'mature council delegates' ;-))

 

It's in the high 90's/f in Jerusalem. Enjoy your Thursday.
