This past weekend, the lotus pond only had a few lotus flowers that were not white. The red and pink lotuses provided a vivid and beautiful contrast to the white and green of the rest of the pond.
Red Lotus
Pink Lotus
Pink Lotus: the grasshopper was a bonus that I didn’t see at first.

So beautiful…. these flowers are special in Indian mythology and mainly used in temples…
Thanks a lot for sharing, Hien 🙂

It’s fun when an unsuspecting grasshopper shows up…. Your lotuses look ethereal here, Hien.

Thank you Jet! Many times I don’t find out about these surprises until I get home and display the photos on a large monitor.

The first photo with the brilliant pink against the green is superb! I think that one deserves to be framed on a gallery wall. Well done!

Absolutely gorgeous, Neihtn. Thank you. What did you do in order for me to be directed to your blog when I clicked comment in the reader? My followers are not directed to my blog but rather a white plain background which is irritating the heck out of me. I want my followers to see my work within the colors I selected on Petals to make their viewing as pleasurable as possible. Love, Amy ❤

Amy I didn’t do anything special ever since I started the blog 3 years ago. However, I notice the wordpress has been making changes to the reader. I don’t see a comment link in the reader. To comment, I click on Visit. Then I see the full blog page.

Yes, that is what you have to do now in order to go to the blog. I also figured out why some blogs in the reader, when comment is pressed for example, you will go directly to that blog. All the blogs with .com on the end of the addy you will be directed straight to the blog. All those with worpress.com (like mine) are being directed to a preview page, a plain white background. I complained and told WP it is not fair and that I spent a LOT of time on my color scheme. I was told that is what WP designed it to be like. I am not happy, believe me!!!
