Back to our usual route

Back to lotus, waterlilies and a crysanthemum ^_^

The weather has been really unpredictable lately, I kept needing to change the settings on my camera as I walk around the garden. I guess it is all part of practice though

We found a blooming lotus in the waterlily pond. It's great that for the first time ever we were able to get up close to the lotus and capture the texture of its petals...the only imperfection is that it's in such a small pond, it is impossible to blur out the background (a building wall) during composition...

Hope to capture something exotic next week~
