Happy Flowers

I received these flowers as a birthday gift a few years ago. They were so beautiful; I could not help myself but to capture them in this photo forever. I love black and white photography and this was my first ever attempt at playing with color in black and white imaging. It was also my first attempt at watermarking my work. 

Took this one with a Wildlife lens  

 

This lens was so big i actually had to use a tripod to hold it up. The tripod went on the lens not on the camera itself. I love the kind of detail you can get out of just one picture. I took about 6 photo's but I chose to post this one. Just felt like the right one to post.
