Beautiful water lily. You did a wonderful job of capturing the minute details of the petals and different colours of the flower. It really stands out nicely against the back background.

This looks like a fireworks display bursting in color against the black night sky! Beautiful focus and details,excellent exposure control,exquisite colors,the yellow center seems to glow from within. A stunning image of this gorgeous flower that makes an excellent initial impact!

Comment from Lucien van Oosten


The flower and the way you captured the colors are very eye appealing. the lighting on the flower is spot on,the focus is good, it could be a little clearer, crisper.
I think that the composition would have been even better if the negative space had been a complimentary colors, rather then black.
The framing is good, just the right amount of negative space, to flower, creating a nice balance between both.

Have yourself a good day,
Cheers,
Lucien

The vibrant purple against the black for the background make the flower stand out. The shape of the stamen inside of the flower are a good shape. The angle of the flower looks like the viewer could sniff it.

Comment from AndreThreeThou


I like how the black background gives this flower a more amplified glowing effect. The yellow hues contrast with the purple ones strongly, giving this flower an otherworldly appearance. The textures all across add depth and something interesting to take in after marveling at the initial strong impact this image has on the viewer.

This is just lovely. The clarity and detail are awesome. Nice call on the polarizing lens, the dark background stands out, and the yellow actually glows. Colors and contrasts are dynamite. Good job.

Comment from Sange


It pleases me to see white Balance Controlled so well in the bright sun. I tire of the excuses so many make about bright sun.
Your Polarizing filter helped with that but it also gave you a nice non distracting background.
Your focus is sharp, details crisp and use if natural light shine through here.
Fine work Barbara ;)
