What a beauty! And great photos too. :)There's a very small hint of colour peeking through in my garden now. Not much, but enough to heighten my spirits during this bleak period.
Pete.

Thank you everyone. I'm glad that I took the pictures today because it just got very heavy rain and the flower been ruined by it. 
Anyway, as requested by "gardenstew", here are the pictures of the fully open lotus I took this afternoon before the rain.

Oh it's even more beautiful in full bloom. Such a pity the rain has now ruined it.
