Beautiful lotus - exquisite lines and colours. Not sure about the bud in front of the bloom - you may not have been able to get a different angle, but having it more to the side might have been an option.
Lovely as is, though.

Nice juxtaposition of the bud to the bloom Bunn. The BG is very nice, and the light is sweet.

I love the lighting here, and those subtle hues at the tips of the petals. Great depth of field, too. Really nice!

Bunn - Wonderfully well done. Love the placement of the bud against the flower and lovely lighting.

Bunn:
The lotus is beautiful and I feel a little disappointed that it has been partially covered over by the bud.
