petals of a rose by quietpurplehaze

petals of a rose

Processed in FastStone from a colour version. The pattern on the lower petal puts me in mind of that textured wallpaper we used to paper uneven walls with before we emulsioned them!
Beautiful tones. Well lit.

You did a splendid job of processing this to show the excellent textures in the petal. This "flash of red" challenge is bringing out the best in our b&w offerings. I don't think I would have noticed the petal textures much if it weren't a b&w shot. Nicely done.

Ann, thank you. I think you are doing a great job with all the info on flashofred-2015 regarding b&w photography. Mostly, however, I'm just having to do my own thing in b&w but I am trying to assimilate ideas from what you post - so thank you for that too!
