Shirley,

I like the image as posted but I'd probably be tempted to crop in some - mostly to just show more detail in the flowers.

Striking image with the black background. I too would like to see a tighter view of the flowers and reflections.

Shirley:
Excellent reflection comp. Another vote for tighter crop to see the flowers better. Other than that, no other suggestion.

I'm with Gary about a tighter crop to really emphasize the flowers, but this is strikingly beautiful.

Shirley: Superbly conceived and captured. I'll chime in with those looking for a tighter crop but this works for me as is. >=))>

Thanks for all the great feedback. I don't have as much time to get on here and look at things as I would like. I'm running out of things to snap, but I did manage to get lightening by accident recently. Now all I need is a good rainbow and I can die a happy person (after I post it to Facebook of course!). :biggrin:
