Thank you all for your comments on this image. The black and white seem to really bring out the textures of the sunflower. Done with Nik Silver Efex2 (love that program)

This reminds me of the kind of meticulous drawing you might have seen in a Victorian gardening book. You have captured an amazingly sharp image, I am in awe of the quality here.
