The color of this flower was a very pale yellow and it didn't turn out well in the photo. I decided to do B&W and really liked how it turned out. All comments are welcome and appreciated as always :)

As a fan of B & W ... I love this. I would love the color version as well. This is simply stunning & is going straight to my faves. Excellent work Carissa.

I love it. It changes the flower completely. A great experiment.

I like both, perhaps this B&W a wee better. B&W can be lotsa fun and it seems to enhance features we sometimes miss viewing the same in color!! Nice job!!

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

I'm with Randy. The background blends great in this one. There seems to be a movement back to B/W. That is how I first remember photo's. I haven't tired of color yet but I sure like some of the B/W posts. Good one Carissa.

Definitely an eye-catcher. This is a great picture...good idea to try a black and white.
