Love the second one but I am a flower freak..... In the first photo I like that you went B&W as I have taken many shots of water only to find them come out with the water an ugly brown. In the Mission Steps my eyes just kept going up and up and up! Nice work :)

Your third photo is the best B&W photo I've seen posted on this forum. Nice job. The first photo is no slouch either. I would have positioned the color shot slightly more to the right and down a bit so that the stem would become a diagonal element across the photo.

Wow! Those are truly great! I've always had a weakness for black and white.
The columbine is fantastic, also. The focus is phenomenal! Close-ups are some of my very favorite things but I seem to always have a problem with depth of field unless I stack the focus. Is this stacked or did you find some great combination of aperture, speed and ISO? If you don't mind, what camera and lens are you using?

Thanks for the nice feedback. I'm embarassed to tell you what I'm using - it's a hand-held Canon Xsi with a 100mm Tokina macro lens. The really expensive stuff, I know. No tripod, no stack, just elbows in the dirt.

So come clean...professional? ;)
No, I'm not a pro. Don't make my living with photography and even if I did, I would feel a little pretentious calling myself a professional. I wouldn't want to dilute the pool of photographers whom I consider professionals. Thx.
