Maria for #monochromemonday

This is the garden of a Franciscan convent here in Bologna. It was open during "Diverdeinverde" - where you could visit some.private gardens. Funny thing is, there's a plaque that says this is where the Franciscan sisters come on holiday! I knew Bologna was a tourist destination but not that it was a hotspot for the clergy! 😂✨

This is a black and white photograph of a statue of the Virgin Mary in the middle of a garden courtyard. She is on a stone pedestal in the center of a pathway with neatly trimmed hedges and shrubs on either side. In the background you can see a classical-style building with arched doorways and windows. It is partially obscured by tree branches. There is a big contrast between light and shadow which tries to bring out the different textures from the trees, the stone pedestal, the statue, the shrubs etc.

The Passage / Il Passaggio for 👣#monochromemonday

Taken from inside one of the buildings of Il Cimitero Monumentale La Certosa in Bologna. If you look carefully you can see there are people resting in the walls and in the floor.✨

This photo is of a black and white photograph of a long, dimly lit hallway/padsageay. The hallway is lined with columns and alcoves, which contain plaques for tombstones/burial spaces. There are located in the flooring and in the walls. The architecture is classical, with an arched ceiling with lots of intricate details. The perspective leads the eye down the length of the corridor to a distant light source - a brightly lit doorway that leads into another room.

Maybe it's time to get some blocking mats? 🤔
Sultan cotton poncho FINALLY finished and wet blocking over night. Really happy with the length and the colour distribution. This took one whole sultan kings cake, plus around ¼-⅓ of the second cake. I know a lot of people hate working with yarn that splits but honestly yall, the way this fabric feels on my skin and how good it drapes it worthhh itttt.

New (and curious) #kitty update for #Caturday! She came to visit the other day and let me pet her. 😻
I talked to a neighbour who also gets visits from her. She knew where the #cat lives but not her name. So the mystery continues, but now we know her family! I will ask about her when I see them, but I'm usually not in that corner of our neighbourhood so it might take a while. 😅

A captivating close-up of a tabby cat sitting on a paved outdoor surface, rendered in monochrome with the exception of its striking bright green eyes. The cat has a white chest and paws, with dark tabby markings on its head and body. Its whiskers are prominent, and it gazes thoughtfully towards the right side of the frame. The background is softly blurred, showing hints of a building or structure.

Hanging round, downtown by myself
And I had so much time to sit and think about myself
And then there she was, like double cherry pie
Yeah, there she was, like disco super...spider 🕷️

(Sorry, I'm a big Marcy Playground fan 😋)

A monochrome, low-angle shot shows silhouetted foliage in the foreground, framing a small spider suspended on a barely visible web against a cloudy sky. The dark leaves and branches are sharply contrasted against the lighter, textured sky.

The image is a black and white photograph showing a set of stone steps leading upwards. Graffiti is scrawled across the steps, reading "dear tourist, it's like I live in a fucking zoo". The steps are bordered by a metal railing that casts a strong diagonal shadow across the scene. At the top of the steps, two cars are parked on a street. The overall impression is one of urban decay and social commentary.

#FotoVorschlag: Mein Meisterstück // My masterpiece

In fotografischer Hinsicht liegt mein Meisterstück hoffentlich noch vor mir. Im persönlichen Leben ist es wohl diese kleine Person, die da auf mich zurennt. Nicht perfekt (genau wie die Eltern), aber schon ziemlich gut gelungen. // When it comes to photography, I hope my masterpiece is yet to come. On a personal level, I guess it's this little person running towards me. Not perfect (just like their parents), but pretty amazing.

The image is a black and white photograph of a cobblestone pavement next to a road (visible on the left). The pavement stretches into the distance, creating a strong sense of perspective. A child wearing a bright pink winter jacket is running towards the viewer. The cobblestones on the pavement are arranged in a pattern, with a central strip of diamond shapes running along its centre. Buildings line the right side of the pavement, and bare trees are visible on the left, next to the road.

I was experimenting with Snapseed's double exposure feature the other day, but I didn't have enough suitable photos for it. But I was diving into my archive to look for cable clutter photos for yesterday's photo prompt, when lo and behold, I found a few shots that could actually work! They are from the #London #velodrome, where we were watching a track session in 2014. 🚴🏼‍♀️
I must say, for 11-year-old photos, awkwardly stitched together on my phone, it turned out better than I thought! 😅

A black and white photograph shows an indoor cycle track, the Lee Valley VeloPark, with a group of cyclists racing. The track curves steeply, and the cyclists are captured with a motion blur effect, creating a sense of speed. Banners with "Cycle Surgery" and "visitleevalley.org.uk" are visible along the track's edge. In the background, there are rows of empty seats. The overall scene captures the dynamic energy of a cycling event in a modern velodrome.

A black and white photograph captures a street scene dominated by a dense network of overhead wires. The wires crisscross the sky, creating a chaotic web against the backdrop of tall buildings on either side of the street. The buildings are multi-storey, suggesting an urban environment. A street lamp stands prominently amidst the wires. The lower part of the image shows cars and a van on the street, and there are some signs visible on the buildings, including one that reads "VICHY". The overall impression is one of a bustling city street, with the wires adding a distinctive, if somewhat cluttered, visual element.

A black and white photograph captures a street scene in Romania, specifically Bulevardul 1 Decembrie 1918, characterised by communist-era architecture. The image shows a long row of multi-storey buildings, typical of the communist era, lining the street. Overhead wires crisscross the scene, adding a layer of visual complexity. Cars and a van are visible on the street. A sign reading "EUROEST" is visible on one of the buildings. The overall impression is of a densely populated urban area, with the architecture reflecting a specific historical period.

The image captures a street scene in Bucharest, Romania, near Piața Obor. A complex network of overhead wires dominates the view, crisscrossing against a clear blue sky. On the left, a building with a 'MedLife' sign is visible. To the right, a tall, communist-era building displays a sign reading 'COMPANIA IMOBILIARA EUROEST'. Street-level shops are visible with signs like 'SPRING TIME' and 'VELO ALMAJA'. The image offers a vibrant view of the city, with a mix of architectural styles and urban elements.

A black and white photograph shows a group of people walking down a set of steps, possibly an entrance to a metro station, indicated by a sign with the letter "M". Overhead wires are visible, crisscrossing against a clear sky. The scene is framed by concrete walls and a decorative railing. The image captures a moment of everyday urban life.

“There’s no better way to get to know a city than to walk its streets. A place will reveal its soul through its sights, sounds and smells, and eventually, it’ll teach you its rhythm.”

A greyscale illustration of a couple walking in a city at night, people all around, and the cityscape rising above them.

I didn't have a #bnw image for #MonochromeMonday yesterday, so here is one for #TrainTrackTuesday instead

The black and white photograph captures a train platform at Munich Hauptbahnhof. The perspective is from ground level, looking down the platform. A train is visible on the left, with its tracks running parallel to the platform edge. A thick white line marks the edge of the platform. Two blurred figures are visible in the distance, suggesting movement. The platform itself is constructed from dark, rectangular paving stones. The station's roof structure is visible overhead, with sunlight filtering through.

Two vibrant yellow and pink tulip flowers are in sharp focus against a blurred black and white background of more tulips and foliage. The tulips are side-by-side, their petals showing variations of yellow that deepen to a rosy pink at the base. They stand on slender green stems. The background's monochrome palette makes the colours of the two foreground tulips stand out vividly.

A close-up shows a single, delicate white flower with a bright yellow centre, surrounded by blurred grey-scale foliage and buds. The flower has five prominent petals that are slightly creased and catch the light. The central stamen and pistils are a vibrant yellow. The background is out of focus, highlighting the flower.

A close-up, black and white photograph shows a red ladybug perched on a plant. The ladybug has black spots. The plant has small leaves and is slightly blurred. The background is also blurred, creating a soft, out-of-focus effect.

#ColorPop shenanigans! But so much better than the others! 😱 Oh my god, I feel so dumb. I was today years old when I learned that you can also do selective colours with Snapseed! 💫 Which offers such a great quality compared to all the shitty (free) apps I've tried in the past ... 🥲

(Oh yeah, did I mention that I have no idea what I'm doing? 🙈)

Anyway, this is #Middelburg (🇳🇱), a lovely city even in the #rain!
