Lotus blossom
There was a small stand of lotus plants with a few pretty blossoms on Nanhu (South) Lake at Hongcun Ancient Town, Lixian, Anhui, China.
Lotus blossoms are so beautiful and I liked the way the light was hitting this one. I used an aperture of f14 in order to get all parts of the flower in sharp focus.
