Spotted this one near a brick walkway and little bridge over a small pond. It was marked as to what variety it was and it was the largest I've ever seen of this type of flower - about the size of a dinner plate!

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

With respect of its size, 'humble' is unknown to it's vocabulary, Kathy, lol.

Wonderful image. All the shades are perfectly captured! Very well done.

Regards, Cornelius.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
