Might have tried a tighter crop on the left to take out the grainy section but the title suits the subject aptly and the effect on the flower and the choice of b&w is superb.

Excellant DOF control with the vague, yet detailed background. The image appears to be slightly over sharpened with the "sawtooth" effect in several places around the image which is a very minor issue as it's not readily apparent on first view. The grain enhances the artistic presence of this image and the total effect is very positive imparting a lot of artistic impact - almost like the accretion disc of a black hole. Very scifi. Well done.

too noisy for my liking
