52 week photography project – Week 11: Black and White

Magnolia in black and white for Photographer's choice 52 week photography project

Source: Week 11: Black and White I have written before how much I love Spring, the flowers, the colour, the new life and in particular my magnolia tree. I always take copious shots hoping for one that's just right. So you can imagine how wrong I felt turning this one into black and white for Week …

Mundane Monday Challenge – look down!

I was in Melbourne on the weekend and while out shopping in the city we walked through some of the grand old arcades.  They are beautiful old buildings - well old by Australian standards anyway. This particular one had Christmas trees, decorations and sparkly curtains hanging from the roof which took your eye upwards. But on …

Sunroom on a cold morning

It's time for Sally D's Mobile Photography Challenge  and as it's the third Monday of the month, the theme this week is Black and white.

Be calculating and creative in choosing your subject and focal point; resist the urge to simply take a photo of something with a single color range. I'm still not sure if this photo fits this week's Daily Post's photo challenge theme of monochromatic.  I decided to use my …

Sally D’s Mobile Photography Challenge: Black and White

The tower seems to stretch forever upwards! In colour it was just another photo of the Turning Torso.  I called this 'Monochrome …

Room with a view 

I took this photo last week at the beach quite by accident. The beach house has amazing views over the water and just seemed to stand out from all the other lovely houses. I love the clean lines and the starkness. What do you think? Black and white?    Or colour?   I'm very interested …

Old cottage

Well here I am at the end of my 5 day challenge, thanks again to Jill for nominating me.  I have enjoyed having a second bite at this challenge, as black and white is not my normal or preferred photography style.  Having said that, I have learnt and experimented more this time around and it …
