A stem of yellow mums in front of three black calla lilies in front of two big leaves of some sort that Michael at Pure Design thought would be different. In Color the leaves are varigates of green with red on the edges and down their middles. The contrasted nicely with lilies that read a burgundy red but the contrast was as good as I wanted. More complementary than high contrast. In color this would have blown out the yellows to where their detail would be gone for the most part. So BW it is. Sorry its floral but you should know by now that I have next to no imagination.

Looks like the color was just dropped out. The gray balance doesn't look natural. I've heard converting to Lab color in photo shop and droping the chroma channel would look better. Nice lines over all.
