An excellent picture Hayward, simplicity itself, a good composition but for me this is all about shapes and colours. The shapes are natural but I have no idea if the colours are or not, but it doesn't matter because they are just so right.

i wish we had a lake or pond in our sub division...this is really pretty and even though simple in ways, it holds your interest with the many colours and other details...lovely shot Hayward.

Something most people would just walk by and not see the beauty, I'm glad you see it and show us. For that I thank you , great job my friend.

Wonderful shapes and colors. The cloudiness of the water turns your image from a shot into art.

I love the colours in this photo, and the cloudiness of the water makes it seem somewhat surreal, and enhances the stems of the lily pads! Thanks for sharing, Hayward.
