Description

Hello all! I took hundred of shots of the lotuses and refelctions in the water of the tall palms and lily pads that seemed to have diamonds droplets on its edges !!.... I still have not even begun to have looked at all the shots I took that day . I do not want to bore you with too many in repetitive shots but cannot help but be drawn by thier splendor and glory ! The glow of the morning lotus in morning light is unlike anything thing I have seen in my lifetime . So heres a solitary lotus water lily that I did a tad of smudge painting with my mouse by hand to draw it out in contrast and clean it up a tad... _________________________________________________ Truth lies within ourselves: it takes no rise from outward things, whatever you may believe. There is an inmost center in us all, where truth abides in fullness and to Know rather consists in opening out a way whence the imprisoned splendor may escape than in effecting entry for light supposed to be without.
