China photography lotus flower

"Since Li Tanglai, everyone loves peonies and loves lotus flowers alone ..."

When Zhou Dunyi wrote this article about Ailian,

He will never think of it.

Hundreds of years later, in another land,

There is a man who loves lotus as much as he does.

Fazad, a 72-year-old bartender,

Not a professional photographer

Taking pictures is just his hobby.

But that's the kind of fan.

It took him 4 1 year.

Photographed countless intoxicating lotus flowers.

Lotus under his lens

Each one looks like a gouache.

Soft as brocade and quiet as water.

It feels like a fairyland.

Enjoy it quietly with huahua.
