The image is a black and white photograph of a single white water lily in a pond. The flower is in the center of the image, with its petals spread out and its center a bright yellow color. It is surrounded by large, dark green lily pads that are floating on the surface of the water. The leaves are arranged in a circular pattern around the flower, creating a sense of depth and texture. The water is still and reflects the flower and the surrounding foliage. The overall mood of the photograph is peaceful and serene.
