I'm a little colorblind, it means I can't trully apreciate the color tints of this photo. But I love the way the photo is "cut" in 3 with the central part (the big leaves) getting the focus.

Very nice. Can you give us the name ot this aquatic plant?

@Martine Lapointe: Martine, I wish I could!
It was a pond with lotus blooms and several kind of water lilies.
If you look properly you can see a fringed pink bloom on the water, these belonged to the giant water lilies pads. Unfortunately, too far away to focus on. Have a look at my previous Lotus shot, it is immense and gives you a good feeling how everything was just enormous in size!

Helen from Melbourne, Australia

Beautiful. Quite an astonishing shot. I like the way you've captured the variety of leaf colour and size in a foreground, middle-ground and in the background.

Look at the vivid colors! Wow...you have been with Aminus 3 for a while. I have truly enjoyed it over here.

@Cricket-Tammy: Yes, for quite a while and still enjoying it too... I know the "makers" of Aminus3 and at the beginning we were only a handful. Thanks for your visit Tammy :)
