Thank you very much!!!
I like to see Moorhen walking on these Lotus leafs...I saw long ago in a NG video on TV.
Its very distant looking shot or with mobile camera shot.
I think you are right ashish. Nymphea looks a bit different. in my birth town is a small nymphea population in a thermal water lake since the last ice age. this some i´m going to get a good digital shot and post it.
If Nymphaea its Nymphaea pubescens
I think its look alike Nelumbo specie that Nymphaea of Lotus or Water lily.
