Mid-Week Monochrome – MWM -12- On the lake
Back in 2017, we spent a couple of days in the Lake District. And was the scenery spectacular! With hills and lakes and woodland walks, it was an ideal place to take landscape photographs. The above photograph is of Lakeside near Keswick.. and I have processed this image in Photoshop to give a painted feel […]

Mid-Week Monochrome – MWM -11 – Boats
One of the areas we love to visit is Hampshire and the New Forest… And on our last trip down that way, we went to Riverside Marina. From there you can watch the Isle of Wight Ferry and it has a beautiful marina. So for this month’s mid-week monochrome, I thought I would process an […]

Mid-Week Monochrome – MWM -10 – Stately Homes
We are both members of the National Trust.. and one of the places I used to love visiting was Wakehurst Place. However, they have now decided that car parking at Wakehurst would become hugely expensive with extortionate prices. So we don’t visit there anymore. National Trust Members – Cars: £2 for the first hour, £5 […]

It is Mid-Week Monochrome once again and a big thank you to all those that entered last week. For this week’s Mid-Week Monochrome I thought I would do a monochrome image of the mudflats at Leigh-on-sea. This photograph was taken when the tide of the River Thames was out.

Mid-Week Monochrome – MWM – 7 – Men at Work
This week I thought I would process an image taken at Upnor Castle of the waxworks that are on display, showing men moving barrels. Upnor castle is local to us and one of the places that is steeped in history and played a vital role in protecting the River Medway from invaders.

Mid-Week Monochrome – MWM – 6 – Whitstable Castle
I have been to Whitstable many times… to stroll along the beach, have coffee in the little cafe or just to visit the market that is sometimes on. But it wasn’t until 2013 that I read a road sign leading to Whitstable Castle. I knew it was a fishing town but I never knew it […]

Mid-Week Monochrome – MWM – 5 – Windsor Castle
There is nothing like a summer’s day to visit Windsor Castle. And for this week’s MWM I thought I process a photograph of the front of Windsor Castle. On the day we visited it was Changing of the Guard and the Guard are marched in by the band into the entrance between the two-turrets in […]

Mid-Week Monochrome – MWM 4

The processing of this photograph was done in ON1 Raw 2018.5 and consisted of creating a Black and White aged Preset. I then added a border and a […]

Mid-Week Monochrome – MWM 2
It is time for Mid-Week Monochrome again and I thought I would process another image we took way back in 2012 when we first started on our photography challenge. It is a photograph of the main house at Bateman’s House which is owned and maintained by the National Trust. And of course, it was the […]

Mid-Week Monochrome – MWM 1
One of the challenges that I used to love reading was Leanne Cole’s Monochrome Madness… however, it is with great sadness that at the present time Leanne will no longer be running this challenge for the foreseeable future. I know I only submitted entries now and again.. but I loved looking at other people’s photos, […]
