PHOTOGRAPHY – MONOCHROME

My submission for Hugh’s Views & News blog, Wordless Wednesday post.

I love this challenge. Although, I probably have never done it correctly. I find it challenging to find a photo that truly speaks for itself. However, each week, I attempt to discover the undiscovered.

PHOTOGRAPHY – MONOCHROME

My submission for Hugh’s Views & News blog, Wordless Wednesday post.

Nature Walk

Of course, during a long weekend, I get a sinus cold. Between the sneezing, napping, and blowing my nose, I’ve been able to do a little editing. For the record, Puffs Plus are amazing. Pre Covid, I went to the local reserves and tried out my camera. It had been a while since I had shot any stills, but I had a good time.

This tree looked weird, so I snapped a few shots. I’ve no idea what is growing on it. It must be some sort of fungus.

A fallen tree. I wonder if anyone heard it fall.
More Fungus?
A cardinal hiding from me
A sparrow

I hope you enjoy these. I’ll try to do some color shots after a nap.

Keep on Truckin, baby

PHOTOGRAPHY – MONOCHROME MADNESS

I’ve been exploring photography these last few months. I almost reached the point where I could justify purchasing a camera or some more lenses. It isn’t that I need to justify my purchases with anyone; it has more to do with me redefining the type of artist I am. As I chuckle to myself at my ridiculousness take a grander at these photos of classic pickup trucks, I saw at a car show.





We used to play songs like this one in my pop’s garage. It was there I learned my way around an engine. I miss those days.

We Were Champions Once …

The dedication, the sacrifice, and let’s not forget the glory. We were kings of the highest order. Nothing could touch us. At least that’s what we thought, felt, and believed. However, life can be cruel, wicked, and unrelenting. Everything comes due, it always has. Rest assured, there’s one thing that can’t be taken away.

RIP, Brother you are missed

Bearded Iris – CBWC – Close Ups

Here is my submission for Cee’s Black and White Challenge. This challenge is close-ups.

Did you just take a picture of me?

PHOTOGRAPHY – CBWC CHALLENGE – CANDID PHOTOS

My grandson seems to be in another world when he has a camera in his hands. I wonder what he sees or what captures his attention. Whatever it is, I’m fine with it. One of the few times I see him without that damn iPhone in his hands.



During a video shoot, I was able to capture some of my actors.




I hope you guys enjoyed these. I used a different platform for the editing. I think I might use it again.

Weekend Sky – 06112023

I went out this weekend to capture a lovely sky. It took me all weekend to get a shot I liked. Here goes. I hope you guys enjoy them.


Trees – CBWC

I’m continuing on my journey into Black & White Photography. I found this challenge last night at Cee’s Black and White Photo Challenge..

I found this tree on a walkabout. I found myself wanting to stick my hand in the hole. The only thing preventing this was the tree was too tall.


After this shot, I got tired and needed to sit down. I almost sat on here but looked down and saw its condition and snapped a shot instead.


I can’t remember where I was with this shot, but I think it’s a cool shot.

Water Birds – CBWC

As you know, I have been exploring the photography side of my creativity. Today, I discovered an old challenge concerning birds. So I pulled out some photos of water birds. Here’s my entry for Cee’s Black and White Photo Challenge
