I have captured many photos of Lotus flowers across Southeast Asia and I absolutely love their beauty.  This image was captured on the grounds of the Puri Santrian Beach Resort in Bali.  It’s one of the resorts owned and operated by Balinese.

I love how the petals of the blossom in the foreground are wide open, splayed to show the shades of their pink beauty.  The yellow center of the flower is a nice focal point for the eye.  The out of focus blossom off in the distance and the Lotus leaves floating on the water make for a nice visual background.
