[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [French]
I took the picture of that lotus on the edge of a pond near Giroussens in the Tarn (France).
I loved the purity of the curves and colours. That's probably why some Asian countries choose it as the symbol of wisdom.

Hi Serge
This is a lovely change from the usual horizontal depictions of the lotus. Fantastic sharpness and depth of field. And the light level seems to flood the monitor with sunshine.
Thank you
Silke
