Monochrome Monday shots from a recent visit to the port
Good Morning, I hope you all had a good weekend, mine was nice and quiet
As I tend to do starting the week with a few Monochrome edits of shots, this time from a walk I took at the Port here in New Bedford one morning, and slipping in one with splash of color
I find I like to try mono often on Port shots, especially if they are taken on more darker moody mornings, when the light is nice, I tend to go more for color edits, but I guess these shots are the exception to that, as the morning I took these the light was nice, but some just called to me to do mono edits.
Such as this first one of Capt Malc
Now this boat has a lot of rust on it, and I think that adds to the feel of how hard working and well used many of the commercial fishing boats are, but I think mono makes it look more rusted and less worn

Now here is the splash of color I mentioned, the reds of the frame caught my eye from a distance, and I walked closer for this shot. I tried a mono edit and liked it, but felt it was a shame to hide the reds that first caught my eye

It was quite still that morning, and made for some cool reflections such as on these four boats lined up on one of the piers
Sure, there is a little bit of motion blur on a couple of the boats, but I still like this shot

Good morning, Mr. @tattoodjay.
What a beautiful way to start the week, seeing gorgeous monochrome photographs of boats.
Excellent shots.
Great shots! It's hard to believe some of those are big enough to go out on the ocean. I think I would be afraid. I'm actually surprised at the size of some of the boats people take out on Lake Huron.
This monochrome is amazing

This is truly a beautiful set of photos, accompanied by a very thoughtful narrative. Your use of black and white really brings out the texture and character of the harbor. The weathered boats and rust details, in particular, look very striking. The still water and reflections, meanwhile, add a cinematic feel to the photo series. Sharing your thoughts along with the photos has made the experience even more meaningful. As always, all the photos are absolutely stunning. Congratulations.
