Such simple beauty. This is a perfect flower. Nicely captured!

Superb work!

Very cool ( not ewww cool, lol! )

I have been meaning to comment on this but was caught up with work the other day. I want to say that I have seen probably hundreds of lotus flower photos – including three books dedicated to this single flower. I have taken more than a few lotus pictures myself. Very, very few have made me go Wow! This is one of those very few!

G’day Chuck,

You have certainly done a great job in catching that inner glow and in making such a well exposed and focussed shot to hold that beautiful detail.
A very nice and moody floral study.
