Glad you like them. They do suit B&W
I was happy and relaxed! And excited, as I was working with a new lens!! But had a bad back by the end of the afternoon due to bending down to get the macros

These are gorgeous close-ups Debbie of my favourite plant species 🙂 I was looking for your current “state of mind”, but I see you did not publish it.

Can’t wait for the warmer weather to use my macro again. I’m not so keen on indoor photography so it has been ‘resting’ for a while 🙂

Much like what I see around my parents’ home in Arizona. They do beautifully in B&W.
