Allium at the Bahai Temple

Junko and I, along with her colleague who is visiting, did a lovely walk tonight around the Bahai Temple (that we've both posted fairly recently). So I tried to focus on 'seeing' something other than the amazing and imposing structure. You can see a hint of it beyond the allium.
Thank you for your wonderful comments and favs on my psychedelic spiral staircase. Very much appreciated.

Very cool and great in b&w

Beautiful. Love the hint of a ?window v the clarity of the flower

[Pam Knowler]

Well done on finding a different take at the Temple! Sometimes it is good to challenge ourselves not to take the easy option. I found going out with only one lens - say 50mm as it forces you to look st things differently to get that good shot! I might do this again! Love the detail in this b&w image with the hint of the Temple behind - lovely! Fav!

When I go to my "special places" I try to look for the different view or something unusual. This is lovely.

Looks so simple at first glance but has so much more to it, I like the shape of the building in the background.

A most elegant and simple composition. The allium is showcased beautifully and the shape and tones of the window behind makes such a happy combination.

I like the angle of the allium capture -- but even more, I like how you left in the reference to the Baha'i Temple in the background!

The simplicity and the tone of this b&w is awesome!
