They make me lose touch with reality when I am viewing or photographing them...this image is not photoshopped, the image is original, only cropping and slight adj. in level was done. Let me know what you think....thanks!

Nice shot, eye art.Good composition too. Maybe the bottom edge should have more showing do you agree? Was the photo taken hand held or on a tripod?

I agree with christofras. I think it's cropped a little too tight at the bottom, but the color saturation is nice!

Nicely done. I really like the effect created by the background colors. I'm assuming they are reflections.

I am partial to water lilies myself, and this is lovely!

Amazing. I thought for sure they were done in PP. Gorgeous colors. We get the plain old white ones up here. I can certainly see why you like them so much. I like the shot just the way it is. The cropping adds a creative touch of your own.

This is a wonderful image, Eye Art! On first glance, I can see why several posters thought the bottom of the photograph was too severely cropped, but after looking more carefully and spending more time with the image, I have to disagree. If the subject of the image were the water lilies alone, the critique might be justified---but that wonderful upper portion, with its swirl of color in dark space, seems to me to be as significant a part of the composition as the lilies themselves. And the close cropping at the bottom creates a sense of motion in the lilies, as though the they were on parade, forming a colorful queue that is snaking itself from the bottom of the image into that inviting, if darker, universe above it. I like this photograph just as it is! Kudos to you, Eye Art! Your moniker is well deserved. . . .

Thanks for your nice words and comments, this was a handheld shot, in reference to the cropping, I had many options but this is the one that made me happiest, I suppose cropping is like choosing a paint color when standing before a bare canvas.
Thanks again.
