There is always this fascination to watch a lotus and it is not an everyday affair. The reflection of the trees in the water makes the photo beautiful.
Esha M Dutta
Thank you Anamika. You know I spent a long time admiring this still reflection on the water as it gave me so much peace! This was in a water enclosure inside the hotel lounge. I loved how it was standing so straight and thats how the pic happened.

I loved these lotuses when I sighted them in Kerala and saw plenty in Bangalore too!!! I dont find them in my part of country at all!!!
Esha M Dutta
Yes, you’re right, Shalz. They have loads in this part of the country … in Kerala, esp the backwaters, which are full of them. I absolutely love these and lose no opportunity to go clicking whenever I see them. 😀
Parul Thakur
Such a beautiful one. I love how the leaves of the lotus are on the surface of water and float. I added my link, Esha. Happy to join 🙂
Esha M Dutta
Thank you so much for joining in, Parul. Thanks much for those lovely words. Watching it, I also learnt that one can bloom in the midst of so much muck and yet retain one’s purity and beauty!
Rajlakshmi
How beautiful ❤ I love Lotus flowers and how they beautify even a muddy pond.
Esha M Dutta
They do, Rajlakshmi. And love so regally they stand too!

There’s something really beautiful about the lotus growing in still and dirty water … and
Esha M Dutta
Yes, very true Sunita! Something like not letting the mess around you affect you in some ways, perhaps!?
BellyBytes
Yes – I think that is the message of hope
Esha M Dutta
True
Ramya
That’s beautiful lotus.
Esha M Dutta
Thanks Ramya!
