This one absolutely fits the bill - those reflections/ripples are wild. And the composition is great - the lily pads just sort of come and go through the frame, they don't dominate.

This is beautiful, Terry. I love the light and the composition of the lily pads. The background is a perfect complement, and does a good job of imitating impressionistic painting.

Hey Terry, you really got robbed on this. I was one of your 8's. Fine work indeed, really looks like a Monet. I'm especially impressed that you didn't use any special filters on this.

Monet would be proud ... Manet too for that matter. 9

Art Deco Impressionism. I dig it.

Another classical impressionistic subject, well executed. I am just not too sure about the blue frame.

Excellent use of the reflection! This is just like some Monet pictures I saw researching for this challenge. I looked for a good shot like this one, but had to settle for another reflection idea. Clearly one of the best put forward for this challenge. Thanks. -10-

NICE JOB. THE GREEN LINES IN THE WATER IS A VERY NICE TOUCH TO THIS.

Ripple in still water... The more I view this the more I enjoy the lines and shapes. The yellow cast in the image still puts me off a bit, but the forms nearly make up for it.
