An interesting look into the heart of the flower. I like the gritty texture.

This is a mystery!

Yeah, a fantastic vivid effect. The color is well chosen. I like it very well. We wish you all a Merry Christmas, health, harmony and peace.

May be a tulip ??? nice realization Don

Closeup of a flower ??? Fantastic effect. Amazing texture. Great shot. Love it. :)

Rose de Noël ?????

poppy? nice grainy/graphic treatment

I am guessing a tulip, but don't really know, have a great weekend Don.

I was having a duh moment and had no clue what it was....it is a neat photo. Wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas in case I don't get much more blogging done between now and then.

i recognized it as a flower center but no idea what kind. :)

Great effect !

I like it !

Very alien and abstract in a fun way. I like it.

Ich schätze es ist eine Tulpe. Auf jeden Fall ist es eine gute Aufnahme.

wow Don, how fun and weird. :-D

I like this flower! :)

Fascinating image Don

I like the grainy feel. I also like the shadows.

Great abstract and b/w!

It makes a great pattern and abstract. It reminds me of an inkblot!

Wonderful abstract creation don. Like the great range of tones and light in this image. Fascinating image.

very nicely done

Fantastique captage et iamge quel rendu et compo quelle forme et effet.

maybe it's the universe after the end of the world :))

A fun grainy image.

A different sort of image from you...

very attractive result of your experiment! i like the strong grain and the monochrome presentation !

it does have an abstract look to it that's alien-like.. :)
