I love that first shot - crisp, vivid, DOF and a lovely lily. Well done. Cheers, Bernz

Great dof and stunning vivid colour in the first one. I like the effect of the water in the second one. Thanks for sharing.

Angelb - thanks for the input. For the second one, to get the effect on the water, I primarily hit "select color" many times until just about all of the background was selected, and then played with levels. The effect comes out a bit haphazard, which I like for some reason.
