"Green Smoke" water lily. Don't know why it's called that, doesn't look green to me.

The color shifts through the bloom are great, Michael. The symmetry and pattern are nicely emphasized by the square crop with the water drops adding a great bit extra. I don't see how this could get any better.

Mark's comments are right on the mark. On my monitor the petals are what I'd call a light, smokey green, except, of course, those wonderful bluish petal tips.

This is gorgeous, Mike. The transition of colors in the petals are beautiful and the rain drops are the icing on the cake. No nits from me.
