A lovely sharp image of this lily. Love the water droplets and the reflections, not so keen on the upside down thing but doesn't detract from the quality of the image, really nice capture, well done

Ah! This is beautiful. The yellows dropping down now that it is in a different angle and the raindrops always add to petals. Here they really add nicely to them. Love the shapes and the dark background.

It looks like a mirror image at first view, but the water drops on the lower petals show that the Lotus flower got turned upside down. Your photo is well focused and exposed and has good depth. I appreciate the refinement of detail and the realism of color. The white balance is correct. The dark background emphasizes the Lotus profoundly. The flower is well placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

Great angle and unique presentation of this water Lilly with beautiful colors and details.
The water droplets are bonus for us to view.
Good luck in the contest.

An beautiful blossom that looks like it is upside down. The exposure is excellent and the detail in the flower is great. Best of luck in the contest.

Comment from avmurray


It is truly strange to see a water lily like this up side down, but this has not taken anything away from its beauty. The small droplets add beauty, and the warm light is falling on it in such a lovely way. I also like the dark background and how well the flower is standing out from it.

The photo is sharp and it is truly clear and well defined details to be seen in the petals of the Lily. The white balance and the exposure is spot on.

The cropping is perfect, and I like the centered position of the Lily. A truly lovely and well taken photo with an excellent DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

Cool,Soulfeeder!
No matter what the angle these waterlilies are beautiful flowers and your nicely 'off-angled' photograph of this specimen looks great,my friend!
a 'Good Show' of a picture indeed!

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of your beautiful lily. Colours, textures and tones are good. Like the droplets. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

This is so very cool. Proves that flowers can be beautifully artistic at any perspective. The dark background really accentuates the bloom nicely. The centered composition is perfect and your details are great. Such a great entry for the contest too. Best of luck.

    This is Soulfeeder. Glad to hear from you. Just like the good old days . Is Dick no longer here?
reply by shoregrass on 17-Oct-2021
    Ed here. I have not seen Dick for quite a while. Been wondering about him too. I have been a bit more active the last half of the year. Never been prolific with my posts though. Picky 😊

    Thanks for responding Ed. Maybe, Dick, quit already. He was always active. You stay safe. At least we're still here. -Soulfeeder-
