Just found out how to use of smart blur, and I applied it for the background to make this lotus simple in composition. Hope you like this.

very good shot. (colors, composition)

Very beautiful Yan. I like how you isolated the lotus. Nice focus on the flower and effective blur on the b/g. Colors are good. TFS. Danilo

The blur is very good as it gives a feeling of more depth of field. This is a lovely lotus flower and the sharpness is very good.

Hello Yan!
Wonderful colours in your composition! Nice perspective and beautiful background! Lovely frame, too!
Excellent done!

Indeed it is. Your new technique really shows off this little and lonely flower well.

A HQ photo! True colors, blurred background against sharp flower, good contrast and geometry; a photo which remain in mind…

Hello Yan
The simplicity also is beauty.
Great resistance of tones and too much clearness, the position of the subject within the frame, excellent. Congratulations.

Nice composition and great colours - use of blur helps to accentuate the flower really well.
Thanks for sharing
