I like how you can see the center of the flower through a gap in the petals. The hint of color is nice; you could have many versions of this by adjusting the color's hue.

This pale color is quite nice- gives it a glowing look that pure B&W would probably not have. Very nice center focus too. Quite unique altogether.

I was just thinking the same!  When you click on this to  bring in the darker surround the image is quite stunning.  A beauty Vasanthi!
