As in "Put up your dukes." Has anyone else heard that before?!? That's right...it is a battle of the two daisies. This one today was converted to black and white. I also added a canvas texture. Tomorrow's shot is the same flower, just a different feel. Which will you like better?

@Chris: I know, I wasn't sure either. I personally like tomorrow's better, but you didn't here me say that!
Crisp and contrasty, and it's a very fine monochrome shot.

This is a great, refreshing shot. I never thought a bw of a flower would work so well.

I love flowers, although I rarely photograph them. This is superb and I love greyscale for flowers. It's always my choice even on a greeting card. Nice one.
