Today's topic 'textures' had me really thinking. I couldn't decide whether to use the colour or b&w version of this gerbra seedhead.
In some ways, I think the b&w shows the textures off better.
Beautiful. I am a big fan of black and white but flowers always look best in colour I think. The black and white does show off the textures better though as you say. Interesting to see the comparison
Great comparison shots , but for me the coloured version tops it as it gives us the whole picture , and gives more depth to the subject ! I feel the fluffiness of the seed-heads is lost in the B/W
Superb capture full of fine detail and beautifully presented Dianne, its a difficult choice but in this case I would add a little more contrast to the monochrome image and gone with that, but in saying that the original looks fantastic, Fav:)
I feel there is more texture detail in the colour version, yet I really enjoy the bw one as well
