Welcome to the thread mate!

You do know this week's theme is B&W pics, don't you?

 

[NC_Coastal]

Sorry, no. I just dove in. I'll do better.

No worries mate, and thanks for joining in!

A little door at the bottom of a tree.
If I go through, where will it lead me?

Inspired by @Radiantcurves87's post of a skyline that many of us have seen, but that's less familiar in black and white, I played with this image from a trip I took a few years ago. It was pleasant enough, but the screaming toddlers, angry parents, impatient crowds, etc. didn't have me feeling the "happy."

That's a really powerful image, avd as you say, probably more so because you don't normally see it in B&W...

I'm intrigued, can you post it again, but next to the original version so I can see the difference? My feeling is it won't be half as dramatic

Where did it take you?

Where did it take you?

Well if I'm honest I didn’t exactly get Alice in Wonderland down the rabbit hole vibes. More Stranger Things or Sleepy Hollow

My feeling was wrong, but I still love the drama in the B&W pic

It's a great pic in both versions

Thanks. It wasn't my favorite vacation ever, but the fireworks show is pretty impressive. All those colors on the castle are projected light and then the fireworks show happens behind/ above. To make the fireworks pop in the b/w, I blurred the castle a bit.

For Brits of a certain age, that would be an Athena print

For non Brits, and kids, meh. I'm not explaining

I don’t know what that means, but I feel like it’s flattering. Bella is just beautiful. I’m no photographer

Bullshit! (not about Bella, she is beautiful)

That's a really well composed pic. The use of light and dark is fantastic, and it really feels like there's a hundred stories behind the picture. You have a great eye and your tits are pretty good too, before you get bratty

Thank you!

This is waaaaaaay outta my comfort zone so we’ll see how long it lasts

Sad I missed another one which sounds like it had the potential to be the best one yet

Missed the first indie pic but caught the second and it is very arousing. Very well done

Black and white and a bit grey.

Looking sharp, PD.

Well… what have I done? Put the wrong pic!? Again!??!?

Love this pic. What knot did you use for the three on the front?

All Dogs

This was taken very near the end of his person's life. This pup seemed to know it was time... his beautiful soul has since followed.

Such a gorgeous pic.

Black n White Bella

Such an elegant pose.

Normally, I do not post photos of the places I have been, or seen. But there is just something about seeing a New York City skyline....

That makes for sleepless nights and City lights

Gorgeous night pics.
