@jorlam Thank you so much for your lovely comments and fav. Jorlam they are appreciated as always, its not a photographic style I'm that comfortable with, that's why I had a try at it just to push myself a little:)
@onewing Not a fan of b&w flowers or high key images either Babs but thought I would give the challenge a try, like you I was pleased with the result, many thanks for your comment and fav they are appreciated
@Cherrill Thank you for your comment and Fav Cherrill they are appreciated, I thought if I could retain the some detail in the trumpets it would be ok:)
@rosiekind Thank you Rosie for your comment and fav, I set the camera in b&w and manual mode then played around with the exposure bias this shot was +1.7 other than cropping did nothing to it in Photoshop:)
