Faded Bell by filsie65

Faded Bell

So weary today... thank goodness the main part of the week is over and we're downhill towards the weekend and half-term holiday. Almost had a bath rather than take a shot, but the thought of B&W Wednesday and the realisation that the bluebells are fading got me out there with the camera and attacking this little stem thereafter in Picasa.
#Colour version http://365project.org/filsie65/365/2019-05-22

Missing looking at all your shots and looking forward to a monster-catch-up soon :)
Pleased to say that I've not seen any more evidence of a large scary bronze bug (apparently a cockchafer, May Bug or Spang beetle!)... glad I got it and glad it went away! Very glad you called by to cop a look, your comments made me smile and chuckle, thank you very very much :)
there's a b&w wednesday now?

Different for a bluebell. Great shot.

@bobfoto BWW. Suggested just a couple of weeks ago.

Nicely done with that DOF.

Great shot, love the dof!

@filsie65 - shame... I used to like Wednesdays.

I love this in B&W. In fact I prefer it to the colour version xx

BWW is new to me too! I like the idea. Nice shot.

@bobfoto It is optional and the other days are stil color - mostly! lol
A sweet subtlety to this one Phil

This is lovely, Phil! I think B&W really helps to appreciate the forms of flowers rather than just be wowed by their colors. Thanks for participating in BWW!

Beautiful in B&W

Great processing, in B&W it looks so breakable

@kittikat - Don't think you'll see me tag one of my photos with "bnwednesday"

@bobfoto They tell me a change is as good as a rest (it isn't true). I uploaded the colour version too this morning as I missed the colour in it...
May 23rd, 2013  
I like them both. Can't make up my mind!

I just want to say, cockchafer. Sorry. Lovely flowers, ma'am.

Love the colour version but this has a softness to it
May 24th, 2013  
Just doesn't hold the same appeal to me in B&W......even as pretty as it is.....colour does it more justice!

Nice shot, Phil! Lovely flower and detail. Excellent focus. Love the black and white. Great job! :)

Beautiful Phil, focus is great and so is the b&w
