Thar she blows

Another photo with great 3D water "effect" captured by accident. Hand-held shot, no effects used.

 

 

This shows a bud of the Victoria Amazonica coming to the surface. Note the spikes on the bottom of the lily pad and on the bud. These are for protection. Note also the V-shaped notch on the lily pad. Each one has a couple of these for natural drainage. Mother Nature thinks of everything.
