Great composition and lighting Christie.Jean Lechleiter April 17, 2009
Another beauty, Christie.Great composition and colour and the droplets add so much. #7415091Dale Hardin April 18, 2009
A lovely capture and composition, Christie. The beauty of this shot is that it also works as a horizontal comp as well.Take a look at it with the top cropped down to just above the stamen at the point where the diagonal white meets the left edge. Not a better crop, just a different view of a great image. #7417327

Great shot Christie. Love the water drops. Just enough for that extra touch, but not overdone. #7417559Sharon Lohrmann April 18, 2009
super christie. I love the dark blue background - it is unusual. really nice dof. I particularly like the curl to the bottom right petal. is it possible to open a bit space at the bottom so the petal isn't cut off - it has nice lines. #7417976Ellen H. Robertson April 19, 2009
I love the water drops, makes this not only beautiful, but unique. #7419108Debbie E. Payne April 19, 2009
The drop is the icing on the cake, here. I love the blue background as it complements the greens and yellow in the center of the lily. #7419718Kathleen Nealon April 19, 2009
Hi Christie, Love the colors and their clarity. Such a clean design. I can see this hanging in a beach house or on a cabin cruiser. It's a perfect blend of the nautical with flower #7419728Debbra Bailey April 19, 2009
Beautiful Christie! Love the focus on the center with the water! Great DOF and composition! #7419946Esther R. Tinz April 19, 2009

Lovely floral Christie..i like everything except the golden stamens..the color looks off to me, perhaps oversaturated, but considering that nobody else has mentioned that it may be my monitor.. #7421160Christie R. Bielss April 20, 2009
Thanks everyone! I am humbled by such kind comments.Tony, I thought it was just me with those stamen-thingys. I'm going to work on those a bit more. #7422918
