Clematis in BW

I decided to do something a bit different. Here is a purple clematis flower in BW.

Nicely done in black and white. I think this shot would be strong in color too.

Awesome focus.

The shapes are beautiful. It's worth losing those beautiful colours.

I am learning a lot about the look I want to get in my flower photography from you, Daisy.

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautiful capture. Great focusing.

[Peter Dulis]

Lovely capture ...

Very nice

[Margaret Brown]

Nice processing, nice on black.

Yes, only 3-5 weeks before the pot comes off then the hard work begins!

@olivetreeann Thank you. I liked the color version too, but I felt a bit "gray" myself with all of the cloudy skies and rain we have been having.

@thewatersphotos Thank you.

@chris667 Thank you for the compliment! I experiment with various angles until I get what I want. I learned last year to tilt the camera 45 degrees. That does wonders with flowers. Just keep trying various angles to see what you like.
