reaction: holy crap. I've never seen anything like this before. You know, you've got skills. You know how to make reeeeeal pretty b/w pictures. Your style can be as instantly recognizable as you want it to be. Yet you'll still take a risk like this. You truly are artsy fartsy.
Interesting concept. Almost abstract. Great focus on the flowers. Are those clouds??? DUH - I just realized I already commented. Well, here's another one. LOL
Really artful. I like that you have to study it to figure out the orchids. Is that a cloud bank at the top of the image? I love it in black and white too, with the contrast it provides. The fact that they are centered really works and a "bullseye" positioned subject doesn't always work, but here, it is spectacular.
