beautiful .. and those flowers work so well in black & white .. interesting composition coz i'd have been more inclined to shoot as diagonal, but this works so well .. amazing and excellent contrasts .. and you are getting some excellent b&w's despite not being able to get around so well ... :)

Wonderful contrast! I actually like the cut-off flower and the one in the background, they give it a more natural feel. Very well done! Have a fun time this weekend stocking up on BW!

I just love the way these beautiful white flowers pop -- almost glow -- in black and white photography! This is so incredibly beautiful! The flower looking right at me just seems to come off the screen. Very well done Jeanne! You are doing GREAT, by the way for not being able to get around too well yet :) Way to GO!

Ahhh, I'd love to. But with the medical bills piling in at an alarming rate, alas no luck!!

A really strong and striking image.
I think you nailed the exposure and conversion to b+w.
I don't like the flower to the left that's partially cut off, or the one in the background though.
Lose though and i think the main subjects would be allowed free rain here.

This would have worked really well in symmetry in my opinion. Good use of depth of field and good use of the frame. Good stuff.

Hey Jeannie~ This looks great~ I love the little spiral in the center of the photo. The DOF is nice too, I think you nailed it! How's it going, being on the mend? Thank goodness for the camera-eh?

Can't say I'd change anything on this image - you've done the black and white quite well here!
