Good picture here! It almost looks a bit like the top right edge should be raised up a bit, as if the image isn't perfectly straight... but maybe it's just me. I think the arragement of the lilly pads is great. It really gives the picture a ton of perspective and depth. The colors are soft.. you could probably increase the saturation levels a bit without making them too strong. I also think the frame is distracting. All around great shot!

I like this shot. Very good Composition. I would have liked to see a little more work with DOF here maybe have it blur more towerd the upper part of the picture but still a great shot.

Wow, this is beautiful. Were you in a boat? Maybe I'm blind, but is that a firefly in the middle or something sticking out of the water?

Very nice. Thanks for explaining what these were; had been wondering for centuries.

Your camera can produce sharper pics. Speed and F were proper. Strange that your pic is not more detailed.

HI Ben!
Interesting perspective of Victoria regia, nice framing and POV, this photo is sharp enough, but somehow I have feeling that some of your other photos need to be a bit sharper and clearer!
