The composition and focus are unusually close to perfect, Tigs. My only complaint, and I'll admit that this is a stretch, is the color. Creamy yellow flowers are very abundant...especially in the water lily department. I would have preferred something in a fluorescent color that would glow under a black light. Imagine having the lily in your room with your Janis Joplin and Jefferson Airplane posters and the incense burning with Iron Butterfly playing in the background. All the image needs is a colorful, perhaps even paisley, lily. Think about it.

These are difficult to take without blowing out the colors, Tigz.
You did a fine job.

Good positioning Sandi. The focus is good and I'm glad to see some of its natural environment as background. Good one.

somehow your lily is both clear and softly beautiful at the same time... don't know how you do it but 'exquisite' is a good word to describe it.
