You're doing it again. Conjuring crystalline structures.

Didn't vote this challenge, but this I would immediately have recognised as your style :) I love your black and white flowers and this is an exceptional example.

I would much prefer to be the owner of this shot instead of my own, excellent.

Soft and delicate. The purity of form is amazing in your images, Ben.

A delicious effort, I love the lines of ordered confusion and their softness. The budding flower stands out wonderfully 8

Having the poppy closed goes with the sweeping shape. Beautiful work.

I love this shot. Was this a 1s+ exposure? I love the streaky oof areas that suggest motion with the poppy sharply the focal point. Well done!

Really love this, and it looks perfect in b/w. 10

The motion in this is fantastic. Love the entire feel of this capture!

It surely is not red, even in B&W, but seems to be well protected by its guard of swords. I give it a well deserved 8.

I love the blur of the movement. Terrific linear quality. LOVE IT.

Brave and I like it! Looks like chaos going on around the single poppy.
