A yellow rose that appears white

A black and white conversion (automatic through Windows Photo Gallery). I have chosen the 1 of the 6 preset white and black options,' this had the biggest contrast. The reason for the conversion was that the colours of the table and the flowers looked too dark together. Natural light from the right, coming through the kitchen window. I know it isn't straight but ir was not my kitchen to spend any more time playing with the camera, the house-lady was preparing breakfast.
