Hello MY Wong,
a brilliant shot of the lotus. The value adds on with the presence of the insect. Great glowing colours well depicted and well managed and well thought shot.
Very clear and sharp, and nice texture is seen.
Lovely post.

Regards,
Foozi

Bonjour My,
Le cadrage serré de cette publication valorise la finesse des détails du sujet ainsi que la délicatesse de ses couleurs.
A bientôt sur TN pour de nouvelles aventures.

Hi Man Yee,
Very nice flower, you´ve captured all the beauty of it with a good illumination. I like how fills the image and the mosquito detail "broken" flower harmony, being another attenton point.
Greetings

A photo simply wonderful and fascinating, technically unassailable, which shows, along with the rest of your picture, not just your master, but an extraordinary sensitivity and aesthetic sense. The lotus flower is one of my favorite among the flowers in the world.
Greetings and congratulations

Very good macro. The lotus flower are so wonderful. Great capture of the insect, he make a trip on the sweet flower of China.

Hi My Wong,

Beautiful color tone of full bloomed lotus flower!
I like elegant petals with pink, white and yellow color.
And, it(the insect of right-center) draws out well good effect in the entire image as well as the color contrast between this flower and background, I think.

Thanks for sharing!
