Water Lily #1


This image ended up on the cover of the Magazine "Internation Journal ofArts Medicine"in 1999, Volume 6, No.1


I was at the local HiTec (getting this image printed) and a lady next to me said, "OH what a gorgeous picture! Can I use it on the cover of my magazine?" Nonchelantly I said, "what IS your magazine?" She told me and the rest is history. The image subseqently sold out several times as a greeting card at the Missouri Botanical Gardens. I LOVE this image. Chuck Dresner, my photographic mentor was with me (or I was with him) while taking this picture, and I asked him to look through the lens for me and he suggested I move the tripod to the left a few inches. Thank you Chuck.
