I wish that I still had some flowers that were making a show at this time of the year. Mine have all frozen to black crisp compost. Great pick for this week.Heidihttp://cakecrumbs-heidi.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160831625429138701.post-48910937212021160492009-11-16T19:29:51.584-05:002009-11-16T19:29:51.584-05:00it may be dry but still beautiful to look at.Ayiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04210270230117772912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160831625429138701.post-25474975674158032502009-11-14T23:05:01.398-05:002009-11-14T23:05:01.398-05:00nice shot..wennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01535757998884625545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160831625429138701.post-72990281262124780282009-11-14T07:27:07.097-05:002009-11-14T07:27:07.097-05:00I like both the sepia and the color, just because the flower has faded doesn&#39;t mean the beauty is gone. Your photos prove that point. I like the monochrome because it forces the eye to see details instead of the color. <br /><br />My camera also lets me shoot in B&amp;W, it is a great feature because I can see what it will look like through the viewfinder. For sepia I have to manually change it.SquirrelQueenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00634513897599275287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160831625429138701.post-18219662494473604132009-11-13T23:34:30.429-05:002009-11-13T23:34:30.429-05:00I agree with Ratty both versions are nice,but black and white really depicked the flower nicely.Windiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05930916579387794787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160831625429138701.post-47910148467079635962009-11-13T23:20:13.278-05:002009-11-13T23:20:13.278-05:00Pictures in sepia has a nostalgic effect.Autumn Bellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00818422090556602092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160831625429138701.post-20223093557406502392009-11-13T08:03:54.886-05:002009-11-13T08:03:54.886-05:00It turned out well in sepia1 It emphasizes the details.Stine in Ontariohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15449865663892740308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160831625429138701.post-13631806341619658442009-11-13T02:09:34.568-05:002009-11-13T02:09:34.568-05:00The black and white really helped bring out an extra beauty to this plant.
