Butterfly from the summer

Hey guys!

I haven't posted in months, but that hasn't stopped me from shooting! Here's a shot I took back in the summer in my front yard. It was originally in color, and much larger, but since I shoot in nothing but RAW, I thought to crop it and go B&W. I'm thinking I need to play with the contrast so that the flower's petals stand out more against the background vegetation (which, by the way, is eggplant, tomato, and squash).

Here's the original:

    I do like the B & W treatment better. The color one seems a bit soft, but the B & W looks sharper. thumb.gif

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
