@pennystot thanks, I was surprised how luminous it looked when converted to black and white

Wonderful b/w shot...the lighting and petal layering look fabulous on black

[Chris K]

@seattlite thanks so much Gloria. It was a great surprise to me how it turned out. I am beginning to learn more about what shots work in black and white thanks to the Flash of Red Challenge

Reds and pinks always translate well to black and white. Although the color is spectacular in its vibrancy this shot holds its own.

@olivetreeann thankyou Ann. I was truly amazed at what happened when I converted it to black and white. Although I havnt had the time to absorb all the information you provided yet it has really been great fun and opened up new possibilities for me. Thankyou for organising the challenge

@cruiser You're welcome Chris and I learned as much as the rest of you!
