Found this small pond full of new blooms behind my bank. Cloudy and windy so hard to focus, but I still liked this one floating in the dark water.

Sensational! You certainly have the eye for composition and the ability to capture what you see. Now, as for why you were strolling around behind the bank......lol ~~ John

Beautiful shot, I like the new bud half in the water half out. Nice way to frame the shot.

I like it too, floating on the dark water. It reminds me of the ornamental pond I had at one time. That thing was a lot of work! This must be called a Floaty Foofy. LOL.Nice shot, Elizabeth.

Nice shot of the Lily Elizabeth. It does look good against the black water. It really stands out. Good post.

I like how it floats in the dark background too.An enhancement might make it stand out even more but its a matter of taste, it works well as is.
