November Rose

November Rose

I don't remember seeing roses in bloom this late in November before, maybe I just haven't been paying attention. Took this one on Sunday. Telephoto lens blurs out the dark green background, which turns to black when converted to B&W.

  2. Wow . In black and white I think immediately on a funeral. Still a very good executed picture. Would it be color you would be one of the many flower macro bloggers. Well done Micheal.

  3. This shot in B&W is great. It makes it more artistic in many ways, rather than purely realistic. It does give it a sense of foreboding... it is beauty with a spiky darker edge. I can't really explain what I mean.. LOL.

    Really good image.

  4. Has a really fine quality that reminds me of Edward Weston's work. Very impressive image.
