Nieves,
A beautiful picture of this deep cream coloured Water Lily encrusted with water drops sparkling in the light It's shadow below it adds a bonus point. Artistic composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

I just sent you a message, and now I can see the most lovely photo of a water lily. Which made me extremely happy.

You have pictured this beauty so well, and the light is falling on it in such a lovely way. The droplets add freshness to the lily, and it is also standing out from the softened background in an excellent way.

The photo is pin sharp and it is indeed clear and well defined details both in the petals and the center of the lily, and the exposure is perfect.

I also like the way you have cropped the photo and the placement of the lily within the frame. Indeed a beautiful and well taken photo Nieves, and with an excellent DOF. I wish you luck with the contest.

    Appreciate your inspiring review. I'm not concentrating so I missed the nomination part. Just in case this one won't let me, I will surely do next time.

Hi Nieves, You always do a nice job with the flower images you post. This water lily is like sunshine on the dark waters. Love the focus and the lighting. Both show the flower off beautifully! A great image for the flower contest! Wishing you Luck! :o) Nancy

A very lovely visual presented here of this water lily. The petals are so clear and soft looking that I can almost feel them. Love the reflection off the water which highlights your subject perfectly. Well done and good luck in the contest!

This is a lovely photograph of the yellow water lily. They are a beautiful flower, and you have captured it well with nice focus and detail. A nice central position in the frame. Good luck in the contest.
