Lotus Pond is a small water body situated off Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India. The pond is surrounded by lush green flora and a 1.2 kilometer path.

Lotus Pond is home to more than 20 species of birds. A few of them are Pied Kingfisher, White Wagtail, Common Moorhen, Little Grebe, sunbirds, Common Coot, and Little Egret. The pond is maintained by the Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad(MCH).

The Lotus Pond was conceived to be an Eco-conservation project bringing natural elements into the concept of the project without disturbing the ecosystem and conserving the natural rocks and pond.

The launch of the construction of the project was on on 20 November, 1999. The work was completed in late 2001.

Hello Sreya, nice serene pond. Good composition and framing.

hi Sreya

Very interesting to see that you have a Lotus Pond dedicated for eco-system and it is good to see action is taken to conserve such kind of nature environment protection.

I can see you have done a creative window and put a good title for this green scenery. I believe the Pond in reality must be very pleasant and full of natural sounds from birds and insects.

If I may suggest, perhaps if you can find some good and interesting feature and include it, the scenery may look more recognizable as landmark, a unique structure, garden, building, statue or anything. A small bridge would be perfect! And choose a bit of colorful flowers to break all the monotone of green. Something for you to think about when you search for POV and trying to compose. Just me with my preference! But if it does not work well for you, let me know!

Nice work though and you have good focus, sharpness, exposure and though the sky is dull, a good shot.

Greetings from Borneo.

Hi Sreya,
lovely capture of this peaceful nd serence spot. the perspective is great and you have shown it very well. the natural framing by the draping branches gives a good nature in action.
the grasses is very well exploited with the light in the middle of the pond so lovely.
well composed and excellent presentation of nature in full display.
