Particularly like your processing Peter - I find this kind of subject really difficult to convert to Black & White successfully. The Rose is the stand out for me - super focusing and the tones in the petals are reminiscent of skin tones

I convert the raw file to a TIFF, then open the latter in Photoshop. Using PS b+w tools I play around with coloured filter effects until I get broadly the image I like. Then I use curves layers to selectively increase/decrease exposure by painting on the mask.
