I have alway been fond of photographing these flowers. Their subtle gradations of color are simply lovely. One is reminded of pastels or impressionist painting.
Below are two links to some of my botanical watercolors.

Rippled Leaves
I discovered this botanical image while editing my body of work recently. Sometimes it’s good to see things with fresh eyes. Originally captured in color, I converted this image to black & white — a superior photo in that format — bringing out all the textural nuances I believe.
