I wanted to give this image a slight animated touch by darkening it, which further emphasizes the water on the leaves too. Hope you like.

Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.

Ann, you darkening this made this a gorgeous post. Love the water lily colour and all the detail on the leaves with the water. Wonderful

Shoveling more of that white S_ _ T, you can fill in the blanks, lol
All of the leaves and petals have such richly defined edges, probably a result of the darkening. You mentioned the droplets of water on the leaves, but there is also a very "neat" drop of water on the lowest petal, as well. Your colors are rich and distinctive and the three colors in the flower is terrific.

MERRY CHRISTMAS to all.
The darkening has worked a treat on this and I like the composition, with the two arcs of the leaves leading into the flower. It's very artistic.

This turned out so well. What a keeper you've given us with this one, my friend. I love the rich color throughout.

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
Wow, Ann. I think it is your best so far. Excellently done. Wonderful composition and fine clear details...and yes, the darkening gave it a lovely artistic look. My compliments.

To see the world in a grain of sand, and heaven in a wildflower, to hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. - William Blake
