- This pond was alongside a busy road, with very bright mid-day sun. I was working on aperture/ISO, attempting to capture the flower without blowing-out the white (I referred to the histogram after every shot and made adjustments).
- I like the sharp detail of the lily. I like the lighting. I like the stem leads the eye from the flower to the leaf.
- The histogram says this photo is under-exposed. I couldn't figure out how to retain the shading in the lily otherwise.

I like the reflection of the flower and the fact that you can see the long red stem on the leaf. I think that if you could see down in the water more (more light) it would take away from the focus of the flower.
