love the blue water! would like to see more of it; perhaps widening the image and cropping a bit off the top and bottom. I like the one petal partially under water on the right side, and I like the sharpness of the blossom, but someone with a better monitor than mine will have to see if there is noise in the reflection and water. I like one lotus leaf in the background, but the second one is distracting to me and keeps pulling my eye to that top corner.
I'm working from a laptop but Cheryl seems to be correct on the noise Cropping wise I would like seeing less of the bottom Do like the composition very much Very appealing image !!!
i do see some noise in the water. in fact i see some noise in the lower. darker petals of the lily that is the reflection. i'd like to see less room on the bottom and more up top. i think you could crop off at least half of the water in the bottom and add twice that much up top. beautiful subject. keep em coming!!
Imperfect as it is. Tried to deal with noise, cut out lily pad at top right, and cropped some off the bottom. Nothing very attractive to the left or right to include, just unattractive pads.
