Thank you, Rod. I just got back from visiting your gallery. Wonderfully inspirational images in it! Love the pregnancy shot on your first page. Very impressive. #8681092Aimee C. Eisaman June 09, 2010
These look great in bw Debbie! Nice contrast. Do you know what kind of flowers they are? #8681958Debbie E. Payne June 19, 2010
Aimee -- I believe they are called "African Queens" but I have no idea of the scientific name. Same as my orange ones, "Bright Eyes". This was a diversion for me to do flowers in B&W but I do like the result on this particular flower. #8704962Jeff E Jensen July 12, 2010

Gee...I've really fallen behind on this Finalist thread. Thank you so much, Nancy, Dale, Aimee, Kim and Sharon for your kind words on this one. I finally had to cut this down and hope and pray that it will come back for me. #8777923Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
