All these photographs are the ones sent to ‘Monochrome Madness’ so will enlarge if you click on them. This year the Photo Challenge has rather distracted me from working on monochrome photographs but I have managed to send in fourteen pictures over the last few months. I love photographing bees and take every opportunity to… Read More Monochrome Madness offerings

I’ve added a gallery this time with photographs and commentry on each below. The first of these photograph was taken at the same time as I took the ‘Winter’ photograph for the photo challenge. Not much to say except that I thought the curved building and lamp post added extra interest. The next week I… Read More Monochrome Madness (Year 2: 40-52)

Here is another three months of my entries for Leanne Cole’s Monochrome Madness. Since photography is not my primary hobby, and for lots of other reasons, I do not get out to take photographs every day or even every week.

I use Corel Photo… Read More Monochrome with a touch of colour
