The lily pond at the Calendar Gardens. I took a friends advice and tried the ISO at 100 for this one. Used the new sigma zoom and my tripod. Again I want to wish Boremachine a wonderful day on his 41st birthday. My thank you pm's don't seem to be enough (I don't think) so I'm dedicating two uploads to him on his birthday. sandi♥

I like your title, Sandi. But the picture is even better than the title. The colors really pop. It makes me miss my ornamental pond. Very nice work.

Always stick to ISO 100 if want professional results. I only step up in very extreme circumstances, & always notice a deterioration in quality !!

I love your title...and these lilies are fantastic. I wonder what the little yellow one is...the two together are perfect.
The whole thing reminds me of some of Monets paintings. Very nicely done..Verena
