Wow!

This is the most interesting photograph of lily pads I've seen. I love the way you've captured the light on the softly curled edges of the pads. Featuring the single flower balanced by the opposing patch of clear water was also very effective. I applaud the overall composition, the crop (if any) and the chosen depth of field. Overall, a lovely photograph. Bravo! 8

Awesome shot. I love the composition and beautiful natural light . This is one of the few where "smooth" still meets the texture challenge (IMO) - I think the sharp focus really adds dimension.

I like this photo! Nice highlight on the flower and pads in immediate area. Nice DOF. color stands out nicely. Appears pond is angled to right....or is that just me?

I am jealous, I was out fishing last weekend and tried to get a lily pad photo but couldn't get close enough for a good shot. I like that your shot represents the texture of multiple pads on the water, not just a single leaf ... very nice flower included.

Lovely shot. Nice composition, nice lighting (though I do wish there hadn't been glare on the right lily pad). Very pretty!

Monet would be proud. Lovely and the placement and composition is terrific. The contrast of color is great but not overdone. Lovely.
