1. Love it!
The yellow against the white and the drops of water...it all works. Great composition and contrast!

4. I find that the water lilies are a challenging shoot.
the petals have this quality that reflects and diffuses light, and the effect is that unless you meter the flower in a spot or center weighted mode, you blow the highlights out the roof.

This was shot in full light.

Thank you for your comments.

2. Beautiful.

I'm really enjoying your flicker photos. You've got a lot of pictures. It might take a week or two to see them all. It's fun.

We take very similar shots. I love that little cat looking back through the plants. Or that bumblebee flying up to the flowers. Wow.

3. Thank you.
I got back into photography to help with a visual field effect of the stroke.
I am going to have my first exhibition at a local coffeehouse gallery in mid september.
I hope you enjoy the site.
