Phoneography Challenge: Black and White

Nov 19, 2013 Forestwood

I like the timeless nature of Black and white photos. Lens and PensbySally has a weekly phoneography challenge, that utlises spontaneous photographs we take on our smart/iphones. I took this one on a black and white effect on the phone to convey the feeling it was an old photograph. I like that we can transmit feelings and atmosphere through such a narrow spectrum of colour.

Thinking of joining in:

Something to ponder about.

A philosophic Aussie writes here, one who will readily admit to loving Scandinavia. I'm interested in global politics but scratch the surface and you'll find a practical Environmentalist with an egalitarian bent trying to unleash a little creativity. Scandinavian culture, literature and traditions are close to my heart, even though I am Australian. Travel and courteous discussions broaden the mind, so I travel if I can. I'm an avid reader, I enjoy photography and a variety of crafts, particularly traditional art forms. I hope you'll find 'Something to Ponder About,' in this WordPress Community.

  Reading a book in a graveyard, mmm I am not sure I would do that. But a few moments of quiet reflection I could certainly do. I had a scary experience over the hill from this grave, so I think the graves there are not as serene as these ones!

The Rosemaling fabric arrived from Spoonflower super quick, I was very impressed! The design size and clarity is amazing. I love the colors too, very vivid!

I love the Traditional Norwegian Telemark Rosemaling design. My living room/dining room/kitchen are all in Scandinavian motifs, with blue, black, and white as the focal colours. I have various Norwegian and Swedish rosemaling patterns, as well as other Scandinavian objects, decorating the above rooms. This is one more piece to finishing the look. This pattern is truly lovely and perfect in the overall look of the above rooms.

Love the wraparound graphics of the Telemark artwork! Gives your items a very up-to-date feel. My Dad was a master rosemaler, so I really appreciate a great job!
