Wow this hits you right in the eyes! Fabulous strong colours, love how the green surrounds makes those petals leap out at you.

The light is perfect for it and it really does show off all the shapes and contours of the flower, beautiful picture.

Waterlilies are such beautiful flowers. Time is rushing on and before long these flowers will be out in my little pool. I like the placement of this bloom within the frame, showing the stamens at the centre but also the side view too. Lovely shades of pink which you have captured very well with excellent focus. Colours are so natural in appearance. Background enhances the subject, being plain and a tone of green, which looks like a tone of the leaf in the foreground. Visually very attractive.

This is a lovely composition. I like the way that you have filled the frame with the flower. The colours also really work well together. My only criticism is that the image is not tack sharp. It is always helpful to include camera setting for reviewers to help them to comment on technical issues.
