When we think of monochrome in photography, it’s often as an alternative to colour — or even as its opposite.
We might allow sepia — with its connotations of nostalgia.
But sometimes, nature presents us with monochrome images; green leaves, a bunch of flowers, or a perfect blue day on the lake.
I’m sure there are others.

The bird is fabulous. I haven’t tried converting bird images into B&W. I shall go and play!

Thanks Jude. I was surprised at how well it turned out. Contrasting feathers I guess. Looking forward to seeing the results of your play!

Many people think that monochrome means a b/w photo. As you made it very clear. This is a misconception. Thanks for the clarification, Su!

Love this series, Su! Never thought a bird would turn out that well in monochrome! And the fern frond is do delicate and soft – beautiful.
