[Leica] IMG: Water Lilies

[len-1 at comcast.net (Leonard Taupier)]

Hi Hoppy,

There was no post processing other then minimal cropping. I have a  
couple shots with green pads. I didn't post them because the pads  
were either dirty or partly discolored. I think the overcast day  
helped the look of the water.

Thanks for your comments and for looking.
Len
