These last three photos are from January of this year. We did have a couple inches of snow and I got some bird photos before it melted that same day. Juncos and chickadees are pretty much monochromatic birds, but they're cute! Canada geese are not very colorful either... not that you can tell when they are silhouetted against the sky.

Nice - one of my plans for this winter is to get some pictures in the snow. Probably a little harder for me than you!

Linja, In the winter it seems easy to capture images with the sense of B&W because of the gray landscape and cloudy conditions. You found some good examples in your archives. I like the angel statue in the snow. The light exposure offers a soft essence to the image which I like and those little chickadees are so cute. I love to see these guys in the winter! They often can be seen in our backyard and sometimes one will light on the windbell that hangs from the house eve outside the kitchen. Thanks for sharing and for linking up with me this week! :)
ReplyDeleteI think the fourth photo of the bird is excellent and fits the theme very well. Winter scenes certainly lend themselves to B&W!
ReplyDeleteStunning images all and the angel picture is especially cool (pun intended.) Come on spring!
ReplyDeleteFotos lindas.

I really enjoyed your black-and-white color photos. I was also happy to learn that I handle photos the same way you do, so I must be doing something right.
ReplyDeleteAll beautiful, but my favorites are the angel and the last bird photo.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos!
ReplyDeleteLovely Winter landscape, and I love the cute Chickadee, too
The chickadee and angel are my favourites.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a long while since I've seen that spammer around, though I think last time they were using a different name.
I love that first snow picture... Perfect for Black and White in Color!!!!!! We didn't get any snow much at all here this winter also... Bummer.
