This week’s Cee’s Black and White Photo Challenge (CB&W) topic is Starts with the Letters B or W. I decided to literally use the letters of black “B” and white “W” for this week’s topic. So the main focus of your photo must start with the letter B or W. And yes if you are lucky you can have B and W in the same photo. Like the one to the right with a boy and water. The just need to black and white, sepia or you can use selective color. It’s another week you can be creative and have some fun.
For a list of upcoming topics, please see the list at below. Be creative and challenge yourself. Look for contrast or highly textured subjects to shoot.

Oh my goodness, am I dense sometimes. I read through your upcoming themes last week and I wondered why specifically the letters B or W. Black. White – Duh! I worry about me sometimes! Your photos of the boys are so cute!

Very clever! Love the water fountain and the barista. Actually, I love everything and I’m finding it easier to make black and white and other monochrome images that I don’t feel I need to cringe over. Thank you again. I seem to be thanking you a lot, but who better deserves it? No one, I think 😀

bottle of water is so… I don’t know what to say 🙂 but it really captures my attention.
I intended to be bilingual (one image in English and one in my mother tongue, Croatian), BUT I found one that covers both languages with letter B. 🙂
