  Hi everyone, sorry I haven’t posted in a while. I’ve been busy with books & now our annual Dallas Blooms with 500,000 bulbs is kicking in. Here are a few/color/BW pairings, see what you think.

  Hi Marty, good to see you back. 🙂
  There’s 4 photos showing here, not sure if you posted more, it looks like you probably did.
  The colour photos are beautiful with the soft colours, and then the b/w are really good too. Good details in both.

  These are all wonderful money, but I think your ultimate strength is really in those black-and-white flower images. That last one is just great.
  
  Also, it’s good to see you posting again – it always makes the board so much better. 🙂

    Thanks for your feedback, Rob! I really appreciate you encouraging me to embrace B&W. You’ll probably laugh but my newest books will be 2 visual “operas” of tulips complete with a cast of characters in a color version & also a B&W. Great fun after waiting for months to get my camera repaired. 😀

      Just realised my voice typing thingy called you money, not Marty! Oops!
      
      I go through such ups and downs with shooting that I can go months without taking a photograph, but I often like editing in those times. I dunno my creative process is all over the place at the moment.
