I live near an international lily garden, and I am constantly amazed by the beauty of these flowers.

Ooh, this picture is really pretty. You've got some talent, m'dear! I like how the water droplets are positioned on the leaves and how still the water seems. It's very much like a professional photo.

However, If I could nitpick one thing, it would be the size. This is a huge photo. It stretches out the browser and I have to scroll to see this whole thing-and I can't even see it all at once, which isn't very good. If you don't know to re-size photos, please click here.

Otherwise, this was some pretty neat work. You've got talent, so keep it up! PM me if you have any questions.

Hi Chiquita,
The picture is mind-blowing and makes me feel serene. No flaws that I could find. Where do you live by the way?

San Angelo, Texas has on of the most exquisite International Lily Gardens in the world. Its actually right across the street from the bigger high school in town. And thank you for your compliments. The lilies make me feel serene too. :D

Hi Chiquita!

That is such a beautiful photo! That is so awesome! It's serene and I love the stillness.
So now, onto the photo.
1.You could've lowered your angle a bit, so that the light doesn't expose the petals right off like that. It's because my eyes are drawn toward the leaves (on the right) and away from the flower.
2.Beautiful, yes. But somehow, the angle doesn't seem to work for me beacuse, it seems to be quite a normal shot.

Anyway, good work. Keep clicking!

Hey! I've 'reviewed' some of your other work, you are just amazing! Imagine if you and Sachi grouped up - what a pair :P

On to the review! I really feel it would be better if you cropped it so there wasn't so much plant above and below, and so the flowers looked bigger. The colours are brilliant, though, and I love the lighting you managed to capture. Next to the flowers, though, is a leaf that is reflecting the sun as well and I feel it takes away from the flowers. The leaves look so liquid compared to the flowers, as well. ... if that makes sense :D

Hope I helped! Keep snapping away!
