Very nice image you have given a flower a textured look and that is creative. Love the B/W format, well composed and all in all a lovely image. Top marks, well done.
I have a habit of checking out a gallery when I'm asked to comment on a photo from someone I'm not familiar with. You have some beautiful work in your gallery, but since I'm commenting on this photo, here goes.
This is an excellent shot. You have managed to create wonderful depth in your photo. The detail, clarity and focus are all superb. I'm not sure if I would like this more in color or not. Great job either way.
