 This black and white lily is a study in shadows and form. I hope you like it as much as I do. Taken on my mom's "leap year" birthday Feb. 29,2004 and dedicated to her.

This is perfect and what sets this apart, are the central stamen shadows!!

i think this is really a stand-out image. the full-frame composition might be a bit much because i think this should be further framed with some "white space" (or, in this case, "black space") to give the viewer a little bit less white to take in.

i also think that just a touch more lightness on the tips of the petals would work better. they seem to trail off into nothingness before their shape is complete and it interrupts what is otherwise a nice leading line.

A lovely object to photograph and has a striking enough form to work well in black and white. Though I do like high contrast black and whites I am not sure that treatment enhances this photograph and the larger very white areas add a harshness rather than a softness, for me.
