Might have to reprocess an existing shot - can't get to the zoos on Thursdays. :(

As I've posted before, that's only for isolating people these day's but if you want to cheat yourself, go ahead :p
 
What I've learnt this week is that taking a (good) photo of something as common as a tree, ain't anywhere as easy as you think it should be. When the theme came out I was like "oh, that'll be easy...." :LOL:
I had tried to get some nice Tree shots last autumn, so I already knew that I couldn't do it.

I groaned out loud when I saw this week's theme. Then again, that is the reason that I joined this challenge, and it really seems to be working.
 
Well well well hear we are again and so soon! Theme eve is upon us once more! Put yer bin out Shnakey!:banana::naughty::banana:
 
On to week 17
I got myself in a bit of a Hole trying to think of something interesting for this week..

Last call for the Technique, 'tis a new one next week..

Star wars day today, a new tech day tomorrow, how can you all contain your excitement?
 
As an extremely laconic mate of mine would say -

"Whoop
 
de fnurking (actually, he'd use a different word but I'm not allowed to use that word here)
 
doop!"
 
For the first time in quite a few weeks i’m up to date on a wednesday evening ! A new subject and technique might put paid to that.
 
I will not be posting for the next few weeks, I’ll play catch up when I get back
Have fun & I’ll see you in a wee while
 
So, week 18 eh? that's over 1/3rd of the way through...


Something for the early risers, and the late risers...
Sun rise or Sun set

Technique for the next 2 months is Monochrome.

Please not this is not black and white..
Monochrome means the presentation of a single color in different shades. This just means that a single color is depicted in different values and intensities. The color remains the same but the elements that differ are the brightness, lightness, darkness or dullness of the color.

Ooh - a few days away in Dorset next week. I hope the sun shines……
 
I quite like a sepia look, can I/we do sepia?

I'd say yes.

You may have seen vintage sepia or cyanotype photographs. These are the most common examples of monochrome photography. In such photos, the warm and cool tones were the results of specific toning chemicals used in the developing process
 
It's something I sometimes do a bit of, rather than purely B&W, so that's what I might do :D
 
I do like a bit of monochrome me :)
 
I've always interchanged monochrome and B&W, never thought about the etymology of the word. I can be pretty certain however that my submission will indeed be in B&W, it's what I do.

Don't like the theme or the Tech?
Might as well please yourself, in that case
