莲花 Lotus

莲花 --- 出淤泥而不染。
Lotus --- Unstained even though it's grew from the muddy water.

在七月头曾到过这个池塘，但是发现莲花连一个花瓣儿也没有，就下定决心一定要在七月尾或八月头再跑一趟池塘。
I was here early July but there isn't a single lotus at that time. Hence, I promised myself to return again at the end of July or early August.

皇天不负苦心人，终于让我等到了！反正都是我在讲而已，你只有份读，那就让照片来说话吧！
Finally, I manged to see some lotus around the pond. Let us let the pictures do the talking!

27.其实，一张照片上要有两个（或更多）莲花，还是挺难拍的。因为背景有时太过复杂了...

Actually, it's not easy to snap 2 lotus on one picture, because the background is too complicated at times...

How many people actually shoot their own reflection in the water?

p/s: 照片拍得不好请不要见怪。另外我会将这些照片让一些佛学朋友看看，然后看看那些可以加上一些佛说智慧加以分享。阿弥陀佛...
