I know this could look wonderful with its real colours, it just seems a case of black and white overkill to me ..

Nature is so wonderful, and I like what you have captured here, lovely curves.....

I like the spiral. I'd be curious to see what this looks like in color. It's so very soft in black and white - which isn't a bad thing.

Delicate lines. Great B&W tones.

I think that a flower shot such as this needs to have some colour. flowers are about their colour no?

I'm not too keen on the B&W conversion.. it seems to be on the right track, you have a lot of really nice mid-tones here, but it's really lacking in the true contrast needed to pop it out.. not enough white whites and black blacks where there should have been.

I really love this shot. The DoF is so great and the B&W works so well. 9

Great use of shallow DOF to isolate your subject. Very nice flower shot.
