May 26:A flower?

I've been trying hard not to do flower shots this year. I did a daf shot earlier in the year, but I think I got away with it. Today I decided that a flower shot needed to be done, but done on my terms. I didn't want pretty. I wanted black & white. I wanted it to look alien. So here's my flower shot. Whad'ya think?

Very "Invasion of the Body Snatchers"!

Yes, that seems to have done the job. Now that the works to the IDA line are complete are you running at full capacity?

So pretty and romantic. JUST KIDDING! It looks tres coool. I love the B&W effect. It makes them look alien-eske.

Looks alien and threatening to me. Good job!

It looks like something looked at under a microscope, a fungus or dust maybe.

Alien definitely. Pretty, yes and no. No because it's not the "usual" way we look at flowers. Yes because it is really well done and becomes pretty in a new way from the use of the light and B&W.
