The Jug of Local Fame
Monochrome Madness is hosted by Brian from Bushboy’s blog this week. He suggested we show you some jugs. You can link to Brian’s site or to Leanne’s Monochrome Madness site.

An old roof will gather lots of moss
A free Monochrome Madness week, free – to choose but not free of moss.
Aqua Spritz
Monochrome Madness: Flowing Water Photographing flowing water is the bane of my photographic life. It just doesn’t look as I want it to look. In colour, it’s usually okay if it’s not the focal point. The flaws come more into focus in monochrome. Having said … Continue reading Aqua Spritz
Not pig but fowl
No fixed theme for Monochrome Madness this week. Helmeted guinea fowl seem predestined for monochrome treatment, their red dewlaps and a bit of powder blue around the head notwithstanding. Artists have long recognised this. Guinea fowls look nothing but distinctive – from the front, from … Continue reading Not pig but fowl
Even when he was little
he liked to jump. Dawn from The Day After is this week’s prompt giver. “Spring” as a verb (and all it’s synonyms). If you like to come along you can link to Leanne’s site (Monochrome Madness) or to Dawn’s site directly: Monochrome Madness: Spring as … Continue reading Even when he was little

Mr or Mrs Stork?
It’s a free week at Monochrome Madness, i.e. no given theme. I decided to show a few of the storks living around here during summer (I think one of them is here permanently).
I can’t tell whether these storks are male or female. I am not alone in that, there is even a children’s song:
What is prancing through our meadow?
The frock is black and white, the stockings red.
It catches frogs, snap, snap, snap.
And it goes clap, clap, clap.
Will you guess who this is?
You think it’s the long leg stork prancing through our meadow?
The frock is black and white, the stockings red.
It catches frogs, snap, snap, snap.
And it goes clap, clap, clap.
No, no, it’s Mrs Stork!
P is for Pea and other Phings
Sarah is the prompter for this week’s Monochrome Madness: The letter P. You can link your welcome contribution to her or to Leanne’s site, the home of all madness, sorry Monochrom Madness. Let’s start with a ponderous subject. That was Poppy, the pug. Just kidding, … Continue reading P is for Pea and other Phings
