Hello Simon, This sure is a tranquil scene you have captured. I like how the lilies fill the picture...usualy you see them in open water. I miss dad in the picture, is he around somewhere?

The madonnas of nature and their broods are a favorite subject of mine and you have added a worthy photo to my collection. I especially like the way the pond works as a backdrop that highlights the colours of the birds...
It took me about 2 seconds to vote (hoping someday it will count), add to favs. and place on my desktop. ;) You've got my favorite number three. You've got my favorite waterplant life. You've got an excellent composition for my folders. And, you always say thank you! ;)
Hello Si, my oh my, where will you ever find more of nature's beauty among lilly pads than in this image! Such grace, such lovliness these fine creatures do possess! Your photographic skills brougth them to life! They will now reside in my favs, smiling! Sincerely, Marilyn
Thisnis sweet. That is a mother with her two gooslings who have not turned white yet. Love the lilly pads. They are speced out just right so that a significant amount of water shows through giving the composition variety. Great work.
