The White Water-lily, ( Nymphaea alba) is one of the most impressive wild flowers in Connemara, looking like a lotus flower floating on the water of our unpolluted lakes. I photographed this flower in a lake called  Lough na bhFaioleann (Lake of the Seagulls) in the spectacular wild surroundings of Roundstone Bog.
