Great floral Jeff...prefer the B/W as well.... #8516520

Nikki McDonald level-classic April 07, 2010

Very nice in black and white, Jeff. The rotated presentation -- or maybe your captured it "sideways" as I know they tend to bend in all directions -- is very effective. #8516537

Very lovely! #8516627

Wonderful close up work here Jeff, and for some strange reason I prefer the B&W version! Well done, my friend! #8517663

Mitch Spence level-classic April 07, 2010

I do like them both, but the B&W appeals to me too. Because it focuses on form, and when one first looks, the form is ambiguous and does remind one of a banana in the midst of being peeled as well as a flower unfolding. #8517694

Lynn M. Whitt April 07, 2010

Beautiful details and tones... #8517737

MELODIE C. ROBERTS April 07, 2010

frank w. degenhardt April 07, 2010

Jeff- I love what you have done here my friend. Simple, elegant, pure beauty. Outstanding composition, love the black and white of the picture. Simplicity makes it so apeeling as your title suggest. I love that it shows that sometimes we don't need all kinds of extra things to let an image stand on its own. Exceptional work my friend.
Have a great day and enjoy. #8518521

Definitely the monochromatic version is most appealing to me, too, Jeff!! The textures, form, light, pov and composition here all are truly superb, my friend!! :o) #8523596
