From the original image: used the paint bucket in Photoshop and selectively blackened white areas of petals. Adjusted contrast and levels and added the edge filter. Finally added selective yellow with paint bucket around edges of petals which were white.

Thank you, Patricia. Am not one to usually create something like this, but wanted to extend some creativity and to have some fun with PS being that it was rainy and gloomy outside yesterday! Aloha, Stan

I love the effect you achieved here, Stan, your clarity(!) is outstanding and the delicate outlining makes an elegant, understated contrast against the dark background!
