Tony, this works beautifully -- the shadow and light combine with the tones to bring out the detail of the gerbera. I really like how it almost seems to be floating in midair, too!

Love what you've done Tony, although it looks rather Sepia on my monitor.
A rather etheral feel to it.

The delicate shades and tones are really good here Tony and I like the way the light enhances the petals too.Looking forward to seeing the colour version.
