Hi Ernest
This is a fantastic shot of the water lilies - the low POV gives a great perspective. It almost looks like you could sit on one of the lilies and float away. I like the glimpse of reflection to the bottom left of the shot - it gives the impression of stillness in the water. It also means that the concentration of lilies is to the right of the shot, which leads the eye nicely into the frame. The colours and sharpness are good.

Yep me too!!! :)
Nice photo. I like the natural colors which are actually pretty "deep". The only improvement I would suggest is to crop out the little part of the ground in the bottom left corner, which I assume is the ground you are standing on. Otherwise the water is still and one can see even the clouds in it. Perfect. A+ from me

Bonjour Ernest,
Une photo qui dégage pas mal de fraicheur, une petite vue sur un des paradis terrestres.
Les verts sont délicieux.
Merci pour ce partage.
Daniel.

No hay dudas que para muchos de nosotros son las lilas mas grandes que hemos visto.
Muy lindos colores y buen contraste del cielo y los arboles en el agua.
Muy buen foco.
Gracias por compartirla con nosotros.

Interesting picture with nice POV and composition. It would be interesting to have some measurable thing to have an idea of these huge leaves ..
