Scenes without color highlight
design elements of feathered finery
Artistic arrangements of snacks
and fantastical architectural forms
Scenes without color highlight
perfection in imperfect patterns
bold and buoyant formations
and the delicacy of floral details

U see so much In ordinary things. What
A fresh perspective! Celeste
Thanks, Celeste! Hope you are recovering well.
Wonderful images. I can picture all of them in color.
Thanks, Beth! I plan to show them in color tomorrow. :D
All good examples, Siobhan! I've seen that Re/Max balloon in color, so that one drew out my color memory. I can even see the purple in the eggplants and the other vegetable colors!
Thanks, John! The balloons are great to photograph, aren't they? Stay tuned to see these same images in color...
I think the top one is my favourite, the colour makes it look very old.
Thanks, Amy! Yes, some images look much older in monotone.
Siobhan, thanks for joining the challenge with these amazing photos. There are some photos here that we just can’t help but imagine their colors even in a black-and-white edit. I love the balloons, the floral, and legumes. Also, the cultural connection in the architectural photo is amazing.
Thanks, Egidio! It was a challenging challenge. I'll share my photos in color on another day.
Fantastic. I'm happy you joined the challenge.
:D
All excellent examples Siobhan, I can see the colors clearly despite the fact that they're not there!
Thanks,Tina! That was a challenging but fun prompt.
Cracking photos, Siobhan! Love the hot air balloons and your first one, great choices.
Thanks, Sofia! As you know, not every picture looks good in black and white. It was a challenging prompt.
Hahaha … your photos just twisted my brain especially the fruits. Otherwise, great black and white conversations.
Glad you liked them, Hammad!
