monochrome monday #4
on Jan 12, 2015“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.” Ansel Adams
Welcome to another Monochrome Monday. This week I have chosen for you a selection of images from some really memorable moments for me, shared with some amazing people. I have enjoyed reminiscing while reworking some of these images and feel that the conversion to monochrome has really worked well for them. I hope you all enjoy...
