 This is a shot of an unknown flower floating across my algea infested inflatable pool. I took the best shot I could, which wasn't that easy, considering the darn thing kept floating away from me. I know it's not that great, but hey, better than nothing, I guess.

The reflection in the water seems to have the sharpest focus, but the flowers appear to be the intended focal point.

Nice contrast between the pinks and the greens. The positioning of the flower looks more accidental than planned. 5

Nice colors. Would prefer the flower slightly lower and away from the edge but still offcenter. 8

The colors seem really odd, but it makes it interesting. The ripples in the upper right corner distract me from the flowers though.

Interesting and very zen (not that I'd really know;) I think moving the flowers a little lower in the frame would've improved the feeling of contrast between them and the water/reflections.
