 Taken at Welford Park, Newbury. This actually has thousands and thousands of snowdrops but this works better in b&w imho

Processed with a b&w layer with a green filter @ 70% opacity and a standard b&w layer on top of that. levels adjustment as well

Here is the colour version

Very nice B&W conversion. Several months yet before we will see spring flowers in Finland. :(

Spring is almost here!!!!!!!!! Yippy!!!!

Ok, I really like this image, mainly because of the connotation.. so, no matter how you did this it would be beautiful in my eyes, even in B/W.

crocus is one of our earliest spring flowers sometimes even popping through the snow.

Although I love the bright color of crocuses, it is VERY classy in b&w, great choice! I like the arrangment of the two main flowers in the frame and your dof. Pretty!
