when my japanese grandfather died they gave him the name "shaku shoren" at his buddhist funeral. it means pure lotus in japanese.

I love the crisp and close composition here...and the B&W emphasises the beauty of this humble and noble flower.
Wonderful, truly.

This image is, quite simply, a classic, timeless example of Fine Art Photography. The composition, the excellent technical execution with respect to focus and exposure all combine to create a beautiful work of art. Very well done.

This is a gourgeous work, Meng
I love the b&w, the angle, the focus, and the frame...
It all works really well together!

Oh, and I also like the way you give the definition of the word you use in the title of each dev

Keep up the good work

A simple flower in white that represents purity standing out amongst a dark surrounding, I think this is really beautiful.

Personally, I think the lotus flower tattoo is way overdone. I understand the symbolism of growing out of the muck and all that...and the whole Buddhist thing, but...still. Overdone.

Damn you and your 150 pictures of lotuses...damn you digicam people!!!! Purdee. I like the overexposed look, but I also think that had you allowed more detail on the petals, it would've been really cool, too. I like the contrast of the white and some of the detail that you have.
