This week’s Cee’s Black and White Photo Challenge (CB&W) topic is Take a New Photo. As long as your photo has been take-in the last week or so, your photos are new enough for me. Your photos can be of any topic you desire. So that leaves the entire world open to you. Sepia tones and selective color are always allowed in this challenge. I just want you to have some fun with your photography.

I’m a bit late joining in the challenge, but hopefully still in time. I was fooling around with the photos I had made last weekend when I saw the b&w potential of this one: https://carpediemnl.wordpress.com/2016/03/30/qa/.

I like your tulip! And incidentally, in German your “bleeding heart” is called “tearing heart” or “crying heart”. I spent the beginning of the week near the Dutch border, and although taking photos was not the purpose of the trip I did take my camera: https://picturesimperfectblog.wordpress.com/2016/03/25/whos-a-pretty-bird/

Thanks so much for featuring my messy kitchen 🙂 I love your shots this week and am wondering what, exactly, hazelnut shells are used for. Mulch in the garden maybe? Just curious. I’m glad that the shells actually have a use. It always seemed such a waste to throw them away.

That is what I would use them for….mulch. You see nursery who grow hazel nuts use them in the top of their planted pots as mulch.

I love the Bleeding Heart shot Cee. At a very quick first glance I thought it was the heads of birds with rounded bills.
We had a glorious sunny day in London on Wednesday so my camera was much in use! Within 5 minutes of getting off my train I was pleased at how complete this building now is and how grand it looked in the sun. https://travelwithintent.com/2016/03/24/francis-crick-institute-london-architecture/
