These are among my favorite types of black & white pictures. Love the tall building and the lined-up windows. And the petals, of course. And the cast iron fence.

The photo of the Dahlia gets my vote this week. The B&W shades from white to grey to black are revealed in the texture of the leaves. You have set the bar very high this week, Cee.

You got some fantastic patterns, great eye and good macro work on the flower.
I noticed some almost zig-zag patterns on the cat as he was about to turn into The Incredible Hulk the other day.

Great gallery – love the buildings, but I believe the Dahlia wins it all today! My little flower is very tiny in comparison…

So many patterns to delight! Yours are wonderful, Cee. The fire escape–source of my height-phobia–fire drills we had to practice in high school. Ugh.

Great patterns here Cee. The word tends to make me think straight lines and angles so I’m delighted to see the gentle patterns of your dahlia. And a perfect theme for b&w.
