Fresh... bold and contemplative...seeing the reflection adds a soft touch.

Wow. I like what Ken said so much that I'm going to let him speak for me, too. A brilliant shot!

Exquisite job on the flowers, William. I like the dof and the detail in the dew drops as well as the light in the flowers. I do find the upturned leaf on the right to be a bit distracting-it just doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the composition.

Fantastic elements all captured superbly.

Yes, a beauty of the nature portraited in a beautiful photo. I love it.

I like this image very much. Beautiful water lily, fresh and vibrant. Love the reflection too. I might consider cloning out the lit bit of blue extraneous reflection near the petal at 3 o'clock of the lower bloom.
