Very nice, crisp image. The flower contrasts perfectly with the dark lillypads and water. Well done!

The meniscus makes it look like an embossing filter has been applied. Very well composed and great detail. This is a favourite:-)

Wow! Thanks for all the kind compliments. This was taken with my new camera (2Mpixel Panasonic FZ1, 12x zoom lens). I'm finding that the high power zoom lens is letting me get the cropping that I want for images I wouldn't be able to obtain with my other 3x zoom cameras. -These lilypads were probably 12 feet away. :-)
