The OP has inspired me to try my hand in B&W. Here's the result:

Cathedral

A Pholcus in focus…

Kind of flat-looking. Needed a bit of work in postprocessing, I think, to brighten it up a bit. Don't you think that… …looks better than… …?

My wife, @Seanette, in a glittery bubble bath. Light glitter sprinkled on top of the suds, and a light arranged to make it sparkle.

These flowers are very tiny—less than a millimeter across. This second one isn't being posted because it's a favorite; just to give a sense of the scale of these tiny flowers, by showing them against a standard American dime. For those of you who are not Americans, and not familiar...

Whether we realize it or not, we are always under pressure.

We're just a few hours from when the next challenge is supposed to open for shooting and submissions, but no announcement yet of the theme thereof.

To give an idea of just how tiny these flowers are, here's some of them against a dime.

A bridge rectifier, made out of four diodes, in front of an oscilloscope display showing the AC input on the upper beam, and the pulsed DC output on the lower beam. AC in the black and white wires, DC out the red (+) and green (-) wires.

I live in an apartment, and don't really have a back yard. So, I wandered around the complex, in areas that come as close as I get to constituting a “yard”. So here's a tiny plant, one of many like it, in my “yard”. These flowers are very tiny, less than a millimeter in diameter.

Third entry: This ant hiding among some tiny flowers… This plant, and these flowers, are themselves hidden in plain sight, by virtue of their small size, such that nobody would ever notice them unless one thought to look very closely.

Second entry.

My cat is not as well-hidden as she thinks she is.

Re: Weekly Challenge June 8 - June 15: Look Up (Above your head) for Flowers in B & W Not really a good time of year for flowers, where I am. Most of the plants nearby that ever have flowers are either past that point for the year, or just barely approaching it. I did find some flowers, and...

A bit over a year after taking that, now with some nifty extension tubes, I again set out to photograph some similar flowers. This time, an ant apparently decided that she wanted to be photographed as well. These are amazingly small flowers, less than a millimeter each in diameter.

As I was taking pictures of these tiny ‪‎flowers near my apartment, this ‪‎ant came along, apparently deciding that she wanted her picture taken as well.
