Very well managed colours considering use of flash.
Though, it gave a waterlily a perfect black BG. The reflection gives a special touch to it.
The only thing I would do to improve it is to clone out these little shapeless bits around the flower - especially the one next to the left border.

You don't post often Adrian but when you do, you take my breath away. This is stunning and absolutly beautifull. The light is so well controlled and the reflection is lovely. Not much to say Adrian. Itis simply beautifull.

A terrific note, Adrian. On TrekNature that would really have drawn the crowds. And I thought you posted here because of some sophisticated PP work, and then I realize you didn't paint the shot over - the thing really looks like that. Wow. This time you didn't go for a play on words, but for a visual mindtrick. And a powerful one if you ask me.

didn't think you were still on the site as an active member thanks for the comment I missed this post, Adrian... I like the shot, nice exposure, and I think the color is superb only thing the reflection doesn't seem to match it could be the angle at 1st it looks kinda strange, because the top of the flower is not in the reflection.
