RetineX in Black and white.

I used filtered Black and white, tweaked sharpness and contrast. I also did white balance then faded it a bit. RetineX seemed to add depth to the image. Part of it is the heightened contrast.

Don't settle for reality, but don't make it too obvious. RetineX can be a blunt instrument. I'm never fully satisfied with its results, but I keep trying.

2. Thanks. Flowers use a wider range of colors than what we can see. It is

At those higher and lower frequencies where they talk with, and seduce the pollinators. They talk baby talk with us. The sexy adult speech is of another level of consciousness. I'd bet if we could hear and see what they are saying to the pollinators, it'd make us blush.

Georgia O'Keefe may have been privy to their pillow talk.

3. Excellent analogy!

I think you photo gets very close to adult talk.

4. Flowers are shameless.
