An excellent composition, Peter. Excellent b & w processing. I’m quite into monochrome images of flowers currently, and this is inspirational.

  Thanks Graham. I’ve had this on my hard drive since last year – thought I’d already uploaded it, but hadn’t!

Thanks for the comments people! I processed this one in “Photivo” a Linux prog – although I think it may be available for Windows as well. As with all Linux stuff, it’s free.

I don’t like HDR/tone-mapping much on colour pics; it always seems to be overdone. There’s that “Gosh! Wow! Isn’t it amaaaaaaazing!” thing going on. In black and white the effects are a lot subtler I feel.
