I went out yesterday grab a shot for this with vague ideas of a flower in mind. I've often driven past this little creek/drain wishing the lillies were in bloom. And there they were!

At first I took a few close ups of just flowers but then I saw this one with the fine reflection and hoped it might come up well enough in processing. I'm quite pleased with the result, I might even take the H2 back and shoot a few of them today.

I really like this Odille. Crisp and colourful. The reflection is terrific. Well spotted.

Great find and perfect execution.  The flower is great by itself and the reflection adds that little extra.  Well done, Odille!

Even the font you have put with it enhances it !
