Martian Lotus 31

The petals of the Martian lotus flower are a deep red, almost Burgundy color. They are so smooth and soft that they look velvety. The stamen in the center of the flower is a bright yellow, and it stands out against the dark background of the lake. The sun is setting behind the mountains, and the sky is a beautiful orange color. The light reflects off of the water and makes the whole scene glow. The flowers are in full bloom, and they look like they are glowing themselves. It's so peaceful here; you can hear the gentle ripple of the water as it laps at the shore. The air is warm and fresh, with just a hint of sweetness from the flowers. You can see why this place is called a oasis; it's like a little slice of paradise
