Always amazed by the beauty of flowers! And no: I'm not a florist! :-)
Very pretty, amazing detail caught in black and white. Somehow still very cheery. Hope all is well with you, DS.
Very nice this flower in BW!
All the best and stay healthy
Greeting Elke
...thanks for hosting and I hope that you are staying well.
Yes, it is true that such beauty and harmony can be found in the shape of flowers. And such delicacy. Contemplating them gives us the illusion for a moment that the world is less cruel...
I like this, I like photos of flowers.
Great patterns for your B&W image.
Lovely! An excellent black and white!
I love flowers. I love the picture.
Your flower photographs are always so beautiful!
Beautiful flower. Loved the click.
Greetings
A lot of details.
Wunderschön in BW
Thank you all so very much!
A very nice shot, I love such macros of flowers.
They always look so noble in B / W.
I hope you are well.
Take care of yourself in these difficult times.
Here is my new post.
Thank you again for linking ♥
