Originally yellow flowers, might be weeds? What made this interesting to me was the dew that was still on the flowers. I'm putting this in to see how a bunch of flowers will do in a BEST OF challenge lol. I cannot compete with the beautiful landscape shots - which most likely will finish in the top. So as usual, I submit what I like and hope for the best!

Funny, I was looking at all the Team Suck Results and when I saw this thumbnail I knew it was yours. Looks like you are picking up a recognizable style. :) Wonderful detail and light. The placement of objects in the frame I think is your signature. Not sure how to describe it, but I can see it in most of your photos (a good thing too). Congrats on a lovely image.
Michelle, I just loved this during voting. I'm glad to see that you were nominated for a Posthumous ribbon. Beautiful, moody shot, with excellent contrast and wonderful composition. In a challenge where the stakes were not SO horribly high, I'm sure this would have landed in the upper 6's.
Well for what its worth this scored a seven from me. I love the fact that whist flowers are a popular subject in challenges this was such a different treatment to that normally seen. Super sharpness and the B&W conversion works really well to creat a deep black background against which the flowers themselves really pop
