I have another photo of this flower, that is color...you can check it out at www.vazaar.com/critiques/id:27536/

let me know which one you like the best (this one has way more ediing done, the other one does not have as much)

I think I like this one better. the black and white makes it really stand out.

Yeah! This one is really powerfull! Good job! Though... I still think a square format works best, so maybe you have to crop it a bit on top and bottum :P
Lawngnome was right, B&W really works on this photo.

Thanks Amy! Tamara, I completely forgot to frame it in the square format..:)...thanks for your comments!!

You're welcome...I reposted the horse pic...but didn't ask for critiques

Noah, I think I love this one better than the other, but I would love to see it in color to say for sure :)

I must admit, this is one of the best flower photos I have seen in a long time. The choice of black and white is perfect. The seemingly spinning effect around the main body of the flower adds to its allure. The waterdroplets give it character, and hole in the middle adds a focus pulling depth. Overall, a 10 of 10. An inexplicably beautiful piece of art. Print-worthy for sure.

congrats on the feature! i got one to---in boats topic :)
