Hi Michelle, this is a great b/w conversion. I love the rain drops on the flower and I am really glad that you preserved the detail in the highlights, giving the flower great texture. Usually I am not to fond of flower pictures that are shot straight down, but this one must be the exception of the rule, because I really like it. Well done! #1317433

Every month, with our camera in hand, we go out and find what we hope will be the “winning photo.”
Those of us that don’t get recognized, just continue to search for that special image, until one day the Congratulations come pouring in from some of the best artist and friends anyone could image.
So to the Better Photo winners for the month of September, I congratulate you on a job so well done.
My very best to all of you, Merna Nobile

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed.
