    These white on white images are lots of fun. :) I lightened the BG of this image and then converted it to B&W masking out the yellow centers of the flowers. I also added an orton effect and a white vignette. Your C&C would be most appreciated.

    I like the one focused one in the foreground which draws my eye into the frame. You have just enough detail in the bg to provide some continuation of pattern. Very nice and I like the yellow centers.

    The little yellow centres lift this image beautifully, Christopher. A lovely variation on the theme. This really is a fun challenge!:) Kora

    Christopher, Lovely random pattern. I like the barely there look to some of the flowers. I like the foreground flower in focus as Barbara mentioned.

    Nice image and application, Christopher.

    I might have a slight more contrast and a different crop with the focus point in the 1/3 intersection, if it were mine, but nice and ...

    Thanks everyone. Much appreciated, as always. Mark, I had thought about cropping it a bit to place the in focus flower closer to the thirds position, but that would have meant cutting out the two BG flowers on the left which I didn't want to do.

    Understand. I tried cropping it a little and found the same thing. Would be nice however, in this case as so much is out of focus it would bring the one flower to the top of the stack. But nice image anyway and ... Your image, your vision. ;)

    Christopher, I am loving your flower images this week! This one is really nice. Very artistic feel and application of effects. Lovely!!
