Anemone softness...

I really don't like black and white much but I love this. I don't know why I would prefer this to the coloured version but I just do.

Thank you all for your comments and faves even though I don't have the time to reciprocate as much as I would like to.

Because there's not a large palette of grey tones, this reminds me of a delicately rendered pencil sketch. Not a great fan of B&W either, but I am liking photos in HiKey...this fits!
