Pizza House

Black And White Photography, Laurie, Photography

On Monday, I found an hour of free time and decided to use it to meet a friend, and also to find the shot that would be my contribution to Monochromia for the week.  Unfortunately, it wasn’t long before I realized that I’d left my camera back at the house. What?  I rarely go anywhere without my camera!

As I walked down the sidewalk to the Pizza House, I looked up and saw the street light shining on the brick wall, and knew that my cell phone camera would have to do.

Pacific Beauty

I must admit I left my husband at the dinner table to run out and capture the sun’s last hurrah as it set over the Pacific Ocean. (No worries – I did have his blessing.) Alas, the sun moved more quickly than I did, and without many clouds in the sky there wasn’t a great deal of color, but I thought the scene worked beautifully in black and white. Hope you agree!

Tartu, Estonia. The city where my alma mater is. A place with a lovely soul and a  wonderful spirit. University and students are the heart of Tartu. ‘The Kissing Students’ statue on Town Hall Square is thought to characterise the romantic and spontaneous student life.

The park Labyrinth of Horta is the oldest garden in Barcelona. Horta is a district of Barcelona close to the Collserola. Started in 1791 by the Marquis of Llupià, landowner, it was completed in 1802. It was ceded to the city in 1967 and opened in 1971. The photograph is a view of the temple of Italian style with Tuscan columns and containing the statue of Danae, mother of Perseus.
