    Fabulous & interesting texture ( I viewed it large) Judy …a great find and capture !! :D

  • We found ourselves staring at it for some time …. it seemed quite out of place amongst the pads that were all correctly in place. Thanks Evita. Have added the suggestion that it be viewed larger,. .. thanks for that!

    Love the cool aqua tones here Judy…amazing lines and patterns here. Nicely spotted!!!

  • Thanks Wendi … the pattern detail was quite fascinating. As for the spotting … Wendi we could hardly miss it!! It looked so strange! and caused a lot of interest to the public who were viewing at the time … and set our cameras snapping.

    great patterns and textures Judy… if I’m allowed to suggest – to maximise the impact I would look at some fairly tight cropping

  • I will give it a go Jim. And perhaps post both???

    Wow ! thats awesome, what a fabulous natural abstract it makes, and from your later image it almost looks skeletal ! well spotted Judy

  • Thanks Trudi …. it is interesting (if somewhat weird) … and yes you would not suspect what is underneath a lily pad!!
