@alinz challenged me to take a low key bw pictures. I have taken one of this object before and think I posted it but not sure. But don't believe it was bw. I used a flashlight and a candle for lighting in the room I was in and some light from a slightly opened doorway. Not sooc as there was reflection on the stool it was on to black out and increased the exposure on the white flowers. But less processing the last time. Learning more. Looks good on black.
It's a beauty, Joan! So well done! And had to laugh at your comment about my having the wrong settings -- one reason to love the delete function! But so frustrating that I don't seem to learn from my mistakes!
