Nice work, Revonda! I spent quite a bit of time the other day cloning out the bugs, etc., from a water lily shot so I can't help wondering if you also had to give a little helping hand to nature, here. Great shot! Like a deep blue mirror! #3069546Revonda L. Gentry July 24, 2006
Thank you, Nadya! I have had the same problem with water lillies taken in natural settings/ponds etc. So I have gone to cement water gardens like in conservatories where they are meticulously cared for..less work for me!:) #3069597Kathy Reeves July 24, 2006
