Description
While photographing these lovely lavender water lilies in a natural fresh water pond near the ocean on the Big Island in Hawai'i, bees were busily harvesting pollen from the flowers. The behavior of the bees was very interesting, as every bee I observed seemed to be esctatic in how they moved within the center of the flowers, rubbing against each pistil. The manner of their dance was similar to how they behave when they come back to the hive and tell their story to each other of where the 'goodies' are to be found. The center of these water lilies looked like the sun with their brilliant, glowing yellow color.

Heidi Fickinger replied:
Thank you Art. It is very interesting to me how some plants really do glow when you photograph them and these flowers definitely do that.
