Easter Lillies...
Very nice. I like this composition and above all its superb tonal softness.
It's a shame it is quite impossible to further darken the background due to the anthers black colour (on my monitor I can percieve some very slight residual artifatcs). It' s a phenomenon I sometimes meet when converting in BW. Sure you made here the right choice.
In my opinion , a tad of sharpening could emphazise this nice petals texture yet. But it's very good like this.
Well spotted.
Regards.

Thanks
for the comment, Victor. You are right. I didn't dare go darker with the background because of the anthers, but I preferred mono here because the flowers are an orange hue, which is not my idea of traditional Easter lillies' color.
