Orchids

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – August 2023

This week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge #265 is ‘Black and White or Monochrome’. I love working in non color. I am not interested if it is black and white and grey tones or a one color/tone photo.

So here a photo that might be black and white and monochrome.

I developed my skill to identify a good monochrome or black and white photo when I still used film. Translating colors into grey tones is important. If you do not ‘see’ it immediately then see if your camera or phone has a black and white setting. Contrary to an old analogue camera your tests are free and you can see the result immediately. I prefer to shoot in black and white , not in color. Either by using the ‘mono’ setting of my iPhone, or an app like Blackie or Lenka.
