Description
I was overjoyed to find this beautiful lily pond within the Botanic Gardens in Lisbon, Portugal. Filled with these fabulously exotic pink and white flowers and encircled by whirring blue and red Dragonflies, it was the perfect place to stop and enjoy my surroundings. As the sun filtered hazily through the trees and rested on the water, highlighting the pink and green hues and creating the most spectacular scene, I couldn't help but think of Monet. If I were a painter I'd have been inspired to create.
