Thank you so much Tristin and Frank.
Frank, in fact nature is like an amusement park for me.

Nicely contrasty and composed mono. The shape and light of the leaves make them look like small flames in a darker setting around them. Clever shooting !

Wonderful light and framing!, most likely the TC makes the double lines in the BG,,,

I thought I'd like it when I say the photo on my phone. It's great! I love b&w and I love all the angles of the flowers. I have to agree it does remind one of flames.

Thanks!

The Araceae  (Arum Family) comes complete with  built-in "flames" or "reflectors" around their inflorescences. Very photographer friendly, but still only the raw material from which to forge a successful picture :D

Thank you all. Using a long lens at the BG has some advantages.
