FFF-Black and White

It's Favorite Foto Friday! Amazingly, I actually have time to post this morning. I might even have time to read a few blogs--I've been feeling so disconnected! This week has been crazy busy. There's suddenly been lots of changes at our house, as I try to get used to working part time. I don't know how you working moms out there do it! Things are starting to settle down now, but if I had more than one kid or were trying to work full-time...sheesh. I think this week would have put me in the loony bin. :)

Today's theme is black and white! I love black and white photos. I hope you enjoy some of my favorites.
Cute Baby Feet!

Doesn't he look like he thinks I'm a nut? I wonder if it was the flowerpot...
The END! In more ways than one...:)

Thematic Photography-Monochrome

Some things are just better in black and white. Panda bears, zebras, soccer balls, and, oh--oreos! Those oreos with colored filling aren't nearly as tasty--they're just wrong. Just like oreos, some photographs look better in black and white. In fact, some photos that look awful in color are awesome in gray scale. Here's some amateur photography advice--before deleting a photo because the lighting or the coloring looks funny, try converting it to black and white to see if it can be salvaged.

Carmi's thematic photography theme for this week is monochrome. I went with that theme and added one of my own.

I'm not sure where I took this. It's somewhere in a tunnel between
here and Philadelphia. Does anyone else think of Stephen King's
The Stand when they're in a tunnel? Scary. :)Can you guess my theme yet?This car lives in the woods on my family's farm. Doesn't it look sad? I don't know if it's sad because someone wrecked it and left it all alone, because my brother and his friends shot out a few windows with BB guns, or because mice ate it's upholstery. Maybe it's all of the above.
