purple toadflax

Photo Information

Not that you'd know it was purple! A member asked on the forum how to get his camera to take B&W? This reminded me of the capability so I've been playing with it. The background is a mass of white rambling rose.

This kind of shot in B&W is certainly an interesting idea. AS Andy says, "Nicely done".

Thank you for your encouraging comments. The lens was an M42 Vivitar 100mm 1:2.8 at f5.6.

Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
