Every little flower’s reaching for the sun
I like experimenting in monochrome but I don’t like robbing flowers off their colours. So for Cee’s challenge I made it so that I couldn’t see the original colours but chose a picture from a series of monochromes. To check up after I had made my choice I looked at the coloured version and I just can’t not show it:

Half-timbered houses
Cee writes on her block: For a great monochrome photo “look for contrast or highly textured subjects to photograph”. — Half-timbered houses then for me!

Hands, foot, and a paw
Hands,
foot,
and a paw.
I just had to include him with all those feet and hands on him. In fairness, he normally doesn’t dress like this (or so I’m told) – this was after a run where we had to swap tops at some point and he was apparently short (sic!) changed.

Wheels
This wheel is smokin’ … actually, it’s burning.
Wheel and bike are the same words in Germany, so we have a kind of wheely culture here.
These are very old wheels in a mill. They are the reason I’ve chosen sepia for today’s post as the original photo looks hardly any different.
A picnic area specifically for cyclists (others are welcome).
In their old age, wheels can be used as decorative items.

Good fences make good photos
or so I hope.
This last one is more of an oddball – I know the sign is meant to warn passers-by of beehives but the fence lets one wonder how big those bees actually are …
