Hello Jeffrey,

I am very taken by your photography on your lotus life page.
We, my wife Teressena and myself have been living in Hot Springs, AR for the last seven years and photography and birding are some of my own hobby’s, that have grown over the years. We also organize sacred journey’s to the Olmeca / Mayan lands and intend a tour this early fall again.
I also create web-sites and am looking to use recently learned Flash knowledge to upgrade our sites.
Here is where your artwork may come in. I would like to create a flash from a closed lotus to an open one and would like to know what you see as recompense for using low res images of some of your lotus-work, (because it is for the net).
Please let me know if you are open to sharing them this way.
With kindest regards,
Martien Bakens

Very nice shots Jeff. I need to get out and do some more macro work, thanks for the inspiration!

(Am I seeing things wrong or are you now shooting with a 50D? Congrats!)

Absolutely beautiful. And I was going to ask the same question as Dawn! Thanks for your gracious sharing. I’m not a real computer savvy grandma, but if I can figure out how, I’d like to use one of these as wallpaper too. It’s such fun to experience the world through others eyes, and your vision is very appealing.

Those are wonderful, Jeff!
I’ve seen the American Lotus, sort of creamy yellow/white, but never these pinkish ones.
So pretty–I especially like that seed pod!
