Black and White 5 day Challenge
I’m not one for photo processing, tending to prefer a natural look in my photos. I know they could all be greatly enhanced, but normally what I ‘see’ is what you get. This week I succumbed and have been taking part in the Black and White 5 day Challenge, and I quite like some of the results. My photo for Day 3 seemed to develop a life that it didn’t previously have when I converted it to black and white.
This is my entry for Day 4 and I like the bold lines of this composition in black and white. All week I’ve been having fun with the question ‘Have you guessed where it is yet?’ I’m pretty sure this one gives it away.
I need to say thank you to Pommepal for suggesting that I might enjoy myself once I started to play. She was right! And thanks also to Wilbur’s Travels for nominating me. If you don’t know these blogs, you’ll surely enjoy a visit.
There are only two rules for this challenge:
1. On 5 consecutive days, create a post using either a past or recent photo in B&W.
2. Each day invite another blog friend to join in the fun.
Today I’m inviting Yvette from Priorhouse Blog. She’s only just back from visiting family and will be in a whirl ‘catching up’ around the blogs, but she’s a whizz at challenges and can turn her hand to anything.
I’ll be doing a round up of the challenge tomorrow, with my final photo for Day 5. Thanks for tolerating this ‘intrusion’, Six Word-ers. I hope you have a happy weekend, whatever the colour. As always, I’m off to visit Cate at Show My Face with my ‘six words’.

have a great day and be back soon – Hugs ❤ ❤ ❤

I don’t normally take black and white photos. But I think it’s the most fun picking from the color(ful) ones and meeting the b&w challenge. Nice work, Jo.

After a while you get an idea of what will work, Gem. Trouble is once I delve into the photo archives I get lost inside there 🙂 Thank you!

The Gaudi buildings are stunning, Colline (welcome back from your little break, by the way 🙂 ) and it was easy to take fun shots. 🙂

Thanks, Madhu! I did enjoy it once I got started. I can’t give you a name for the building with the sculptures. I don’t (very naughty!) label my photos so have to rely on where they are in sequence. It’s near to the central square with the fountains. We were about to hop the bus up to Tibidabo on a glorious November day. Happy memories 🙂
