Mono Monday a few recent shots

Mono Monday a few recent shots

Good Morning, Another work week begins and may it be a good oen for all of you

Not so much a work week for me but have appointments every day this week so in my terms a busier than usual week

as I tend to do on MOndays sharing a few Mono shots to start the week, these are all from fairly recent walks, a couple a couple of days ago a couple a week or two back, but after winter and not gettign out for walks for me these are recent lOL

Starting with a walk I took in Fairhaven MA, a lovely little town just across the water from New Bedford where i live, they have some cool ghistoric buildings including ths one the Unitarian Memorial Church which I did a post on the other day with color shots so slipping in a mono shot here

Next up in Buttonwood Park, a swan on the pond, I think it thought i had food and came swimming oor paddling what do you call it when a swan is moving in the water.

THis is one of the few times I had taken out my 50-400mm Lens, I have mostly been taking my smaller lens as they are lighter but gave this one a go for a walk around the pond, my shoulder coped with it fairly well

Still in Buttonwood park, I have done spring shots saying how I love the fresh new colors of spring including daffodils, but thought i would share one in Mono

and to finish off this memorial for those who were lost in the Holocaust, I did share a shot of it in my last Wednesday walk post, but I think this portion of the memorial comes across more sombre and powerful in Mono

Amazing Captures jay, really liked the monument picture and the memorial church. The Black-and-White shades have amplified them beauty even more.

I love the way you tweaked the church to make the photo look older than it is. Kind of like photos from the late 1800's. It's an impressive church with that gothic style. The swan looks great in mono! Great work on all the pictures, amazing how easy it is to turn a picture from color to monochrome with the click of a mouse!

Thanks, Yes it is fairly easy to do mono edits, but i tweak them a little to suit each image so takes a few clicks

Have a great day

Love that church with the sky 😍 great mono shot. I've always thought those type of churches direct your vision up to the heavens or in this case to a really cool sky 🙂
