The gallery name is... ...Lotus & Lily Flowers...
Perhaps in other areas of the world, it is indeed known as a lotus.
Thank you for visiting.

Unfortunately, this is not a lotus, but a waterlily. The stamens and stigma are different. The giant hole in the middle will become a giant puddle of poison on the second day of blooming that will kill a very unfortunate insect that comes to lick nectar off the stamens all around. The stigmas of waterlilies are not visible while lotuses have huge stigmas in the middle with stamens all around. Also, lotuses only come in pink and white. Just a note to all those who took this for a lotus.

The lotus flower is one you will never forget, such magic it carries. This picture was a great inspiration for me in my last polymer clay sculpture, thank you so much, no other place had pictures so enchanting. My best friend wanted a moon face, (I do faces mostly, with things around them) with blue lotus flowers around it...and a dragonfly. If you'd like to see, pass me a line in email and I'll send you a link.

IN THIS PICTURE THERE'S THE ESSENCE OF HUMAN LIFE, ACTUALLY OF LIFE ITSELF...I AM VERY TOUCHED BY YOUR ABILITY OF CATCHING THE DELICATE OVERWHELMING MESSAGE THAT JUST THE LOTUS FLOWER CAN EMANATE...
