This is my favorite of the yellow lotus blossoms. Topaz Adjust and Clean on one image and Nik Tonal Contrast on another and I merged them.

Nice image and application, Judy.
Maybe we need to suggest a Lotus week!!!![]()

Thanks Mark! Yes it looks like lotus week this week.
Beautiful composition, Judy. Love the light and the details on the petals. The water drops definitely enhances the image further. I like the leaf on the lower part of the stem. My personal preference would be to crop a bit off the bottom. Nicely done.
Hi Judy, I think the petal lines and curves really makes this photo stand out. If it were mine, I would blend in the LLC with the surrounding green background. Not a biggie, it looks great as presented!
Nicely done Judy, very nice exposure, colors, and detail. The green and yellow look so nice together. I like the leaf, makes a nice visual anchor for me.

Thanks Indranil and Jay!
Jay, I painted over the LLC about 10 times with green alreadyIn fact I painted over the whole background about 4 times to darken it.
Judy, I like the leaf too. Nice looking lotus with the curved petals. You did a great job processing this one!![]()
Thanks Denise!
Your choice of flower and perspective are excellent. The petals on this flower make it especially interesting. I like how some of the center is framed by a curved petal. I'd clone the little bits of black here and there. The LLC is a bit distracting, but I don't know what can be done about it. Beautiful processing.
