It was a drizzly, overcast morning when a friend and I started out on a long-planned photography outing. "Bad weather makes great photos" as the adage goes, but I was skeptical at best that day. Then, in a small pond, I came upon this water lily, its face open to the sun, the clouds, and even the rainy day. Open to all possibilities. Surrendering to the present. Accepting of the moment. Open.
