Outstanding skilful work, by converting to B&W you did great in moving a key feature to a point of powerful looking art photography style, an image worth award. Saeed

You're right, Don! Butterfly weed is what some call it. Want some?? These spout and grow real easily ALL OVER the place.

Evelyn - Thank you for uploading the color photo. It is beautiful - but for whatever reason - the black and white has more impact - almost unworldly. Love them both. Jan

Really incredible. :) I think you succeeded in reaching beyond the ordinary - it's like they're made of light and gossamer.

Thanks Deb -- It is not a far stretch because everyone tries things in B&W and sepia tones but it seemed to make "weeds" special somehow ;) Thanks for your responsive reply to my pic.

Hi Evelyn,
I think there is more mood in the B&W. When you removed the colors, other aspects of the photograph stand out. The shape, lighting, contrast, texture and tone have become the dominant elements. I wonder what it would look like on a purely black bacground - no frame lines. ;)
