I used Simplify to give the image some "punch" and a vivid painterly feel, Tonal Contrast to accentuate details............multiple layers of color balancing. Hope you like it..............

Hey Jay,
I like bold colors.....so this works for me! I like the flow of the comp too and the yellow WL was placed in a very good spot!
Looks like enamel jewelry. Nice effect!
Jay, I love it! Agree with Roman on the flow of the composition and positioning of the lily. Wonderful colors and processing.
Jay, I really like the effect on the pad; it looks like a tiled mosaic where the leaf is curled...if it were mine, I might remove the circular area of blue where the water tension has the water clinging to the background pad as it enters the water, and maybe darken the one where the foreground pad enters the water. Nice find...I didn't see this one there on Saturday!
Lovely Jay. Great colors and flow as suggested!
Love the colors and the positioning of the elements in the comp!
Jay, Very nice bold look. I like the filtering and the image design. I could see this with a sliver off the bottom. The jeweled tones work so well here. You really have a nice artistic touch.
What else can one say, that hasn't been said above...very nice image.
Hi Jay, very nicely processed and captured. I really like the reticulated pattern of the center element. Nice colors and composition, love how the flower makes a solid anchor to the composition.

Jay, this is beautiful. The leaf looks like enameling and I love the color of the lily which compliments it. I'd like to see a crop from the bottom to just below the reflection also. Nice work

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the comments. Looks like a slice off the bottom might work well. Will give it a try.
