I don't post here very often.  I think it really takes a good eye to get interesting floral images.  But I like this one because of the DOF.

An interesting color and unusual shape. Since the color of the lily pads contains a considerable cast of blue and cyan, I have to ask if they accurately represent the actual colors. Entirely possible, as there are any number of palettes in the ornamental water lilies.

This was taken at a wetland preserve.  Blue saturation and green saturation were each reduced by 24%.  Light was moderately harsh.
