Love this - it's like a crowd of sightseers gathered around a pool, or some weird experiment. To me this is exactly what a top macro photograph should be - whilst it keeps the fascination of seeing something larger than life, which is the obvious attraction of the genre, it is actually a landscape photograph, using and obeying the strictures of that genre too. Wonderful wonderful stuff - and a ridiculously unsatisfying score in my eyes, even if many folks would love to achieve it. The shot warrants so much more.

Great details and I love love love that you did this in b&w. Makes a little more abstract than just the everyday flower shot. The composition is quite nice and the clarity is great. Just enough contrasts to it as well.

Very good as a b/w. I really like this one a lot. Crisp details and the petals are, for the most part, nicely focused. Off centered just enough to make it interesting. Tonal range seems a bit shallow as I see a dark gray as your blackpoint. Maybe you have a black near the middle but it's hard to tell. Great job overall. 8

Excellent super-macro! Love the BW but am very curious what the colors were. Super sharp!

The desaturation works well with this image in my opinion, good clarity and contrast give it added interest and make it one of the best flower pics I`ve seen in the challenge.

This is so good. I love the way the center jumps out at you. I bet it would be great in color too.
