Mono Monday a few trees
Another weekend has raced on by and a new week begins and may it be a good one for us all, as is my habit I like to startt he week with some Mono images and today is no exception to that and I have decided to go with trees as the them for this weeks post
Starting with this one in buttonwood Park

Now some have asked if I take the photos in B&W or edit them from color photos and also do I know when I take a photo whether its going to be a b&W image
All the photos I take out on my walks I take in color and in RAW mode ie where the camera does no processing of the images, so that gives me more options of how I choose to edit them,
but that said some shots as I take them I pictutre them in my head as a mono edit and this next photo is such a time and what led to todays theme of trees for a post
the other day I was taking a walk by the pond in Buttonwood Park, now it wasnt a sunny day was a bit overcast and when I saw this tree it had a moody feel to me and I took this shot knowing i would edit it in B&W and bring out the moodiness I felt

Now not all Mono image shave to be moody in fatc I think its a minotiry I go for the moody feel, most are brighter perhaps reflecting my mostly Mr positive peronality such as this next one, on one of the paths in Buttonwood Park
