Searching for artistic black and white florals

2006-02-04 by Clarence Walker

I have been searching, with little luck, for the style of images I have seen
in years long ago of black and white floral close ups, probably in the style
of the masters or classic images, wherein the image is a true work of art in
all respects, i.e., light, shadow, contrast, the full gray scale,
composition, interest, crystal clarity and infinite focus. In the past few
hours of searching, I simply haven't been able to find this as most are
simply close ups or macros of flowers with little real visual interest. What
I am seeking is a site with lots of works where the flower is captured with
the artists eye and then finished with the care and attention to detail of
an Adams rose or more such as this:
