I made lots of lily pictures. On some I added ripples. I spent days processing all the botanical gardens images.

One of my favorite places in NYC, and one of my favorite plants – you’ve made each one a beauty, Sherry!

Edited or not, they are beautiful photos anyway. The flowers look like they’ve escaped from a fairytale. These lotuses can also be admired here in Belgium in our National Botanic Garden (Brussels)

This was the year I discovered our native water lilies (Nymphaea lutea), and those are my favorites from your selection here. My absolute favorite is the fifth photo; it manages just the right combination of tropical and autumnal.

Nice processing. A few years ago I spent time at the Biltmore Estate gardens in Ashville NC photographing similar lilies with nice results, but your post processing really turns up the interest. M 🙂
