Monochrome Lady Slipper by taffy

Monochrome Lady Slipper

Description is in the color version posted in my main album: http://365project.org/taffy/365/2013-06-20
I just love lady slippers almost as much as columbine and irises, and since these are so fleeting, I thought I'd create two versions. In this one, I'm just going for a timeless or classic image.
I like that it is in Black and White.

nice b&w, it shows their detail better since you aren't distracted by the beautiful yellow

Oh it's nice in monochrome too,

Love thid in monochrome, so elegant shot. Agree with Harry, details are more visible in monochrome

Lovely capture and processing!

I like it in B&W accentuates their unusual shape

What a strange plant. I like the black and white best I think - however it is normally a safe bet that I'll prefer black and white to colour! Lovely shots, both of them.

gorgeous shot taffy. I prefer the b&w. what a bizarre plant though...the flowers look like little round cheeses, or pumpkins or something...

@pyrrhula Thanks Pyrrhula!
@colie Thanks Colie -- it felt like a more artistic shot than in color for some reason.
@jaynspain Jayn, you're right -- they are such odd looking flowers, which I think is why I like them so much!
@amrita21 Thanks Amrita!
@rachelwithey Thanks Rachel -- b&w is so expressive, I think. But I'm not quite ready to do a monochrome month yet. It's on my bucket list before the end of the year.
@annied Thanks Annie!
@genesis_one Thanks Corrie!
@susale Thanks Susale!
