Very nice. I don't believe I've ever seen a lotus flower in person. The second shot, I'm guessing, is a leaf underwater with an air pocket somehow trapped? Really interesting!

Thanks.
No, the leaf is above the water. That is rainwater that got trapped in the leaf. I like how it came out silver.
This is one of those times where the pic is much better than I imagined. Too often, I see in my mind what I am looking for, and the camera doesn't pick it up the way I see it. Fog or mist is a good example.

BTW- thanks for the advice on how to resize in order to post.

Always nice when you get more than you expected out of a shot.

Nice set. Why do my flower pics get moved when I post them, I wonder.
