Happy Monochrome Monday!

I suppose one could use any photograph and change it to a monochrome picture and call it good. However, to my mind that would feel like cheating. Plus what's the fun in that? Just taking a random photo and taking the color away doesnt do justice to the idea behind a good monochrome! For me it's just like when I do my sepia Saturday post I try to find a picture that looks appropriate, i.e. old and vintage to add sepia tones to. I look at Monochrome Monday the same way in that I try to find pictures that are enhanced by a certain degree of grittiness and or detail that benefits from increased contrast.

Do you like Black and White photography? Do you like Colour photography? If you answered yes to both questions, then you are a perfect candidate for the “Colour / Black & White” photography community started and run by @daveks
