Ces nénuphars géants sont incroyables, et tu as bien fait d'entourer la jeune feuille qui était l'énigme......magnifique prise de vue avec des couleurs superbes, Jean-Claude !

Is that the same as the "Lilly Pad?" They are quite mysterious and i can see why the Fai and the toads vove parking themselves on on. Well done.

De magnifiques nénuphars géants, une vision impressionnante de cette beauté tropicale posée sur les eaux de l'Amazone, et pour l'anecdote, une vision que j'ai eue directement dans leur pays d'origine voici une petite vingtaine d'années déjà, à Rio et à Belem, souvenirs, souvenirs... une photo magnifique, Jean-Claude ! 📷👍
