Ronald - The Reds on the sides of the Lily Pads add contrast and another area of interest. I like the patterns here but I am sure its a matter of being at the right place at the right time to find that killer pattern.

Ronald:

Lovely pattern with the diagonal red. Also very good detail and texture in the larger version. There is a little blue cast on the leaf and I wonder if this could be removed by tweaking the white balance.

Lovely diagonal pattern and good use of the CPL. A slight blue cast on the left side of the diagonal petals and in the meniscus at the base of all. Not a deal breaker at all, but worth playing with. :smile:
