The Agapanthus (Lily of the Nile) are coming into season in a big way. I had to take this season's first white one....and I'm sure there will be more to follow.
Your critique of my photos is most appreciated. . . . .

What a beautiul stark image. The combination of starkness and "flower beauty" is powerful. Another thing I like about it is it "movement" or "motion," something I try for often too.....the way the image (the light) sweeps down and across from top right to lower left. Do you know what I mean? Woops. Hold the phone. I was just thinking that this was a major element of my favorite of your pictures, and went back to find its name so I could sound intelligent.....and I see that its name is "movement." Well i guess that answers that. You were there way ahead of me. I'm not surprised!!!

@JOEMULLIGAN: This was fun to follow your internal "conversation" and watch it come to its conclusion. I like it. :-) And, thank you for your positive remarks. I like that, too!

@ordinaryimages: I always wonder when I do a B&W shot if there will be a "Jerry" critique! I look forward to your 'specialist's' point of view, good or bad...with great pleasure!
