Playing with flowers

My friend Annie @annied sent me the link to a black and white theme which has just been started by newbank lass @newbank and because I love black and white photography, she thought I may be interested in putting in a couple of pics for the theme.

Well you wouldn't want a picture of our garden at the moment because it looks as though a bomb has hit it. No time at present to do gardening, too many other things on the go. So I thought I would play about with this picture of a flower, well flowers are in gardens aren't they! So this is my attempt at the theme. I also am doing a black and white theme in my topics album this month so will post a photo to do with gardens in there today too.

Great job Babs, I think it is really hard to make flowers look good in Black and white. You have done it here.

I haven't seen this theme, must check it out.

@neatz Yes I do have settings for b&w on my camera, but I took this in colour and played with it in photoshop. I have played with in camera b&w occasionally too.
