I ran into this plant submerged in a lake and thought that it may work well in a high contrast black and white picture. Here is the result:

Wow! Excellent decision to emphasize the contrast and make it B&W. The community team is currently preparing the next gallery update and this image will definitely be considered. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for your kind words!

I like this, it's subtle, and a little surrealist!

Revising this, if it was done in all blue, it would remind me of the some of the first images ever captured, known as Cyanotypes, by Anna Atkins, who is arguably one of the first people to not only capture a photo, but to publish a series of them in a selection of volumes.  The Cyanotype was invented by the polymath John Herschel and was the origin of the blueprint process used to reproduce architectural and engineering drawings.
