Very nice B/W image and the presentation really adds to the photo.

I'm not sure I like this in B&W, but it does bring out amazing detail in the petals and I like how the few stand out against the rest. These look like hydrangea's to me, which I love, and I would really like to see this in color, but that's just me :)

Hey Randy :o)
The first two things I noticed were the high contrast, and the cascading composition. Well done on both counts.
The bright whites are great, but perhaps a tad less bleach might've been the way to go here. Also, I'd really like to see a bit more of the "back up singers". The Shadow/Highlight Tool in Photoshop should be able to help that, and/or adjusting whites, blacks, and neutrals in "selective color" might as well.
Lastly... I like the thin border.. nice, unassuming, subtle touch. And it has sharp corners. It's "shadow"... doesn't. *scratches head and utters a "ruh roh rhaggy". If the shadow doesn't fit, get rid of it :P
How about a shadow (with a defined corner) under two sides, like the right, and top? Would give an off-set, 3d feel to it.
Overall, I like this quite a bit. Good job, kiddo ;-)

Please, even if you don't visit my gallery, check out my "Faves".I've left them intact since day "1", and would like it if every image there got the attention they deserved.
Mucho thanks to all for the great comments and ideas!! I sure appreciate it!!

An eruption of the B&W kind eh!
