Evening Flower

According to Gibsons book on black and white photography converting to b&w will bring out form, shape and texture in the petals of a flower, which I hope I managed to illustrate with this photo. As well, he suggests a dark background will highlight a white flower.
This is for black and white February day 23.

Thank you for your comments and favs on yesterdays photo "Spotlight" I really appreciate your time.
