Serendipity

You thrill me sometimes very profoundly.. this is like life to me Joanne.. gorgeous and flowing down stream.. along the way we meet others who ride with us for awhile and then the sun comes down and reflects more of who we are and then we see our own beauty… this title and this piece rocks my world! A fav for sure!!

Lovely work, Joanne-gotta ‘fav’ it. Lillies in the sky… so surreal. Beautiful serendipity, indeed!

well spotted!

Beautiful capture, Joanne! The sky reflection is so clear that it does give the lilly pads a magical feel…Wonderful title and quote as well! Very well done :-)

How unique! Beautiful down to every last deail.
Gorgeous reflection, lighting and imagery.

So simple, and yet so very beautiful…..... fantastic!

Great shot..looks like floating balloons in the sky, until you take a closer look…then you take a much closer look to see if its fish or leaves in the water…good art makes you see some thing new every time..this is good art.

Lovely,!...I adore water gardens, your comment too!

Fantastic image…love that quote! :) xo

Very nice, good composition with the reflection of the clouds

Magical combination of sky and water, colours and textures, and love that centrepiece with its abstract pattern!

Stunning. Awesome shot. :o) well done my friend.

Lovely serene image Joanne

this is exquisite Joanne _{!!! what a marvelous tapestry of colors and reflections ~ feels like a dream come true} bravo!! love your macro mode :):) the centerpiece of this lily pad is just simply dazzlingxx

This is very beautiful Joanne; the reflection is so clear that whatever is sitting on the water kinda look like they are being blown in the air. My comments are coming in really slow now because of some stress I’m dealing with now. I don’t think I’ll be able to catch up to all the new work with school approaching but I’ve enjoyed your work, and will still comment once on a while.

Great work Joanne. A super shot.

I enjoyed the Botanical Gardens very much during my last visit to Montreal even though it was well into the fall. We were fortunate enough to catch the Festival of Lanterns. This is a simple, beautiful image.

Simply Beautiful! peace…

Great idea and so well executed. Really. Nice job Joanne.

Joanne this is just PERFECT!

Beautiful shot!! I need to catch up on seeing your new postings!!

I just came by again to tell you how much I love this art ~ so enjoying having it up on my wall ~ truly so very beautiful ~ looks great matted to!!

Excellent work, Joanne!

This is just wonderful. At first I was not sure what I was seeing, but the more I looked, the more intrigued I became. This is a great image. Looks wonderful framed.

Great shot Joanne

A lovely image and such fine words to accompany it. Even the little things in life are beautiful if we just take the time to find them.

A nice reflection and colours ! Well caught !

simply elegant, a beautiful abstraction…

Gee I like this, I love the unique angle and reflection of the sky. You have really captured a different angle to a common and normally commonly boring subject. Very, very well done.

This is stunning! The reflection of the sky is stunning and the lily pads look almost surreal – excellent work!!!!

This is very beautiful, I’m not surprised you were captivated! :-)

this is sooooo extraordinarly beautiful!! I love finding beauty in strange places! Bravo!

Great composition!

Very nice lilly pad and the color of the water is really nice too.

this is brilliant

This is a perfect example of your ability to take everyday sights and turn them into artistic beauty! Your works are wonderful and this one is superb!!!

I love the color and comp in this image makes a STUNNING Natural Art WELL DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is beautiful

Simply beautiful Joanne! peace…

How incredibly beautiful this is!! Wonderfully creative.

Beautiful. Again, great DOF to get the sky just out of focus and giving it an impressionistic layer. You and Butchart should start a gallery together! (You may know Red Bubble member, ButchArt already…He has a similar series of abstract water shots)

Such a lovely image Joanne. I love the clouds reflecting in the water and the warm color tones in the focal leaf! It is amazing what we see when we stop to pause for a moment :)

superb nature Joanne!
love the reflections and composition :)
All That Is Nature

Wow this is incredible, from the thumbnail I thought it was an image of leaves falling to the ground and you had taken it from a snails eye view looking up, wonderful work!! :)

very well seen, joanne – not sure why this is so appealing – not just to me, obviously – I thought it was a hot air balloon from the thumbnail and then was delighted to see it was a leaf. Why should that be? No idea but it is delightful.

Beautiful light, reflections and composition Joanne!

Absolutely fantastic! To see the sky in a reflection like that is more than beautiful! The nature is so magical and you captured it very well mu dear!

What a great shot .

Beautiful, nice colors

You are looking down at the lily pad--but the clouds are reflected in the water-what a mesmerizing combination !! Truly outstanding shot !!

Very nice work indeed Joanne….you are a very good photographer.

Debra

outstanding,
