I’ve been reviewing my photos lately looking for strong compositions with interesting shapes and good contrast and converting to them black and white, just to see what I get. Since the category for Cee’s black and white challenge this week is open, I’ve gone with no theme and selected a few unrelated images.
Sometimes black and white just looks better

That’s a fun thing to do, and these are nice results – I like the boat very much, and the maple leaves and yucca (I KNEW that was a a yucca!). The maple leaves are interesting because you can’t quite tell which end is up, if you know what I mean.

I must have taken 50 shots of the maple leaves that day. The sun was behind them making so many beautiful images of light breaking through.

We usually still have snow at this time of year, but not as much – we usually get some thaws that keep in under control but this has been a cold winter – it was still only 5F this morning. Keeping warm involves layers, and wine 🙂
