I think this is very well done, I really like the vibrant colors of the flower and the waters stillness. very nice.

However, i also think that this photo could be improved by zooming out a bit, for the flowers reflection in the water could be comeplete. Other than that very nice.

Beautiful composition. The subject, focus, lighting and colors are pretty much spot on and attract and hold the eye's attention. The only critique I have is that the crop could have been more on the flower leaving less space to the left and right.

I wish more of the yellow was showing, and that the reflection was not cut off.

Beautiful representation of purple and yellow. I think the image would have more appeal if cropped to take the lotus out of the center.

Thank you all for voting for me and especially those of you that took the time to comment. This is my first challenge so I guess 185 out of 352 entries is not all that bad. You all pointed out something that I did not notice so this is a learning experience. I looked at the flower as the whole POV, but voters saw the flower center as the POV. I will take that lesson to heart and look at my photos differently. Again, thank you all again.
