The pond has lotus flowers in it and bulbs ready to open.
On the Pac-Man leaves sit the toad frogs,
and when they wish to hide under the leaves, they jump into the water professionally.
The flower I'm photographing has a toad nearby, probably its flower.
I'm just here to admire; I don't want to disturb.
What I admire is not just a flower, but an ecosystem that made this majestic bloom possible, an ecosystem controlled by humans.
This is not a spontaneous bloom. There are predetermined conditions for development.
In different cultures and on different continents, the lotus flower is associated with development, a personal becoming in beauty, and that beauty comes from understanding the interconnectedness of this world.
