Description
This iris was almost pure white to begin with, so I thought I'd experiment with another b&w flower.

Good lighting effects in this macro of the iris, this time done in a black and white motif, which would have been most appropriate if used in the black and white horse race part of the movie, My Fair Lady.
Such a beautiful flower.... color or B&W!!!! Nice job!!!!
flowers are by nature 'visual explosions', and you've captured that here with totality. It's like a Bach Invention in that it's based on a few simple themes, but it bursts into our sight with real effusion. Do you know the work of Edward Weston? He did those famous fruit/vegetable studies where he captured a fruit as pure light, dark & furrows; and while your iris is uniquely yours, you've done something similar: You've zeroed in on bursts & folds & those saturated whites, making the flower a burst of light & power. It's why photography is called "intensified seeing"; and you've cropped it as if the flower itself dictated the dimensions, allowing its spill to dominate the space it's in. Another fine flower from your collection...
B&W works really well here Tara!! Hope you had a great weekend... no more snow please!!!!!
Fantastic light and beautiful work.
Excellent shot. Aloha
exquisite
A splendid composition! I think the B&W makes for a perfect image, revealing the texture, the lighting and the wonderful detail of this Iris! Really beautifully captured!
B&W is perfect for this, and I really like the crop, too.

A splendid B&W image,
A really lovely shot and i like the black white, because we see the light/shade in another way. Excellentm Tara.
B/W always adds such a cool touch to a photo...I like it...something different :o)
