This is a Water Hyacinth. I found it on google images.

Very nice delicate floral, exceptional detail and coloration. I might have cropped off the OOF portion which mimics the main subject and tends to pull your eye away from it. IMO, with something like this you really need to draw attention to the subtle detail and hues in the primary flower which means eliminating all distractions.

Would have like to have been able to get a tighter crop but I couldn't get closer. Wishing for a 2x teleconverter now, lol.
