For some reason this was a really tough one. The color versions were easy but the B & W was quite a project. I\'m not entirely convinced it worked. All comments are, as always, greatly appreciated.
I just added yet another alternate - a tighter crop that does away with the problem of having inadvertently cropped out the bottom with my close up lens. This may turn out to be the one.
June 30 - I don\'t know why I didn\'t think of this before! I just added this alternative crop in second position. To my eyes it is clearly the best and incorporates what I like from both shots without being too busy. Much better. I think you\'ll all agree.

I added an alternate shot. In color, the second one is far more spectacular, although they both seem to work better in color Maybe you can help me decide which one to use for the B & W exhibit - assuming that either one is good enough to include. It may be that in B & W the second one just looks too busy. Anyway, your feedback will be most appreciated.
