An artificial pond at the Naples Botanical Garden has lily pads so perfect they look fake.
These are shown straight from the camera.
I started to boost the saturation of this one and got carried away. So, I did it some more.
And this one was in a group in which each lily pad was as big as a pizza pan.

I've been checking your series on Italy and I must say you got wonderful shots everywhere. Well done, Jack!
Nice to see some flowers!

Why I am thinking of Monet?
Love water lilies Jack, they look lovely.. Fun to play with saturation :)
There is something truly magical about water lilies.
I do love your shots for the day -- as always, Jack! Such beautiful water lilies and magical they are indeed! Hope you have a great day, camera in hand, of course!!
Way to go! Do you think Ansel Adams printed his photos straight from the camera? Not!
You come back from Italy and think of a pizza pan?... :o)
They are so beautiful, Jack!
The second shot in particular grabs my attention, Jack.
I love the colourings Jack ..... beautifully captured
