About the Image(s)
This image was captured from one of the private firm houses called ASTRAS in Pabna area of Bangladesh; I visited today on 9th Sep 2023. It was a newly established Lotus Pond in the ASTRAS Firm house. A lot of Lotus were there, out of all these, I loved this shot for our submission of September 2023. .
I used my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra mobile's camera for the images (It was a bright late morning and done hand held & without gimbal capture). I used Photoshop CS6 for editing and converting (to crop, discard out part of the images and used some simple light and color adjustment before submission).
I hope you will enjoy the image and kindly give me your feedback on it.

Greetings my friend. Thank you for your valuable feedback on the image. I am sure it will enrich my knowledge and idea about preparing my image to present in a different perception. In this image I wanted to express my subject with their natural surroundings. Nevertheless the cropping from both top and bottom will surely give the subject to pop out from the green.
Thank you and appreciate your suggestions.
Cheers.

Greetings.
Thank you for your comment and suggestions. In this image, I do express my perception of the subjects in their natural environment; therefore not so tighter cropping. I agree with Kathryn as well about the subject being more prominent with its color and entirety.
Thanks again dear.
Cheers.

greetings my friend.
I do agree with you, about these two flower get little less importance on the lush green canvas of the leaves. But these greens has their own beauty; as I fathom. So my idea is to present them with bigger area, so we can enjoy both pinks and greens. But the area of the focus could be little tighter to bring out the pinks better, and I completely agree with you.
Thank you for your suggestions.
Cheers.
Kamal.

Greetings my friend. I understand the points that you have mention and demonstrated. I agree with you that, with this tighter cropping, we get the pinkies on bigger palette.
Thank you for your taking time to help me see a visual representation. I have the clear idea about this suggestions. From the beginning, I was trying to see them as they appear in their natural presentation as far as possible.
Thank you for your kind effort.
Cheers.

Greetings my friend.
Thank you for your kind appreciation. Yes, I do agree with others about the cropping; to make the flower stands out.
But my intentions were; to present the bigger picture with natural presentation.
Your words will inspire me more in future as well.
Thanks and regards.
