Steps
This week the topic is Things Made With Wood. The main focus of your photo should be objects made with wood. It can be anything from a pencil to a huge tree sculpture or even a boat. I am eager to see what everyone comes up with this week. I just want you to have some fun with your photography.
Feel free to dig around in your archives for photos if you don’t have anything new you can photograph.
Upcoming Topics
For a list of upcoming topics, please see the list below. Be creative and challenge yourself. For a great black and white photo look for contrast or highly textured subjects to photograph.
- Wheels
- Numbers: Anything with numbers on it
- Paths and Trails
- Take a New Photo or Photos – Any topic
- Small Subjects
- Shadows
This challenge accepts the following types of photography:
- Black and white photography
- Sepia tones (browns)
- Selective color with the majority of the photo being in black and white

Cee's Photo Challenges 
HI Cee – I know my submission is very tardy, but could not resist joining the party – your challenges are always inspiring even when the inspiration is tardy. I especially adore your flower series. Here’s a B&W submission: https://babsjeheron.wordpress.com/2017/07/31/great-blue-herons-artistic-license/ Best, Babsje

Love the dashboard! I had some fun with this challenge too, at https://theabundantheartblog.wordpress.com/2017/07/17/cees-bw-photo-challenge-things-made-with-wood/. My photos were not originally b&w, but I edited them for the sake of your challenge. I think they would have looked better if the originals had not been in color, but it was fun anyway getting to share my surprising find while vacationing in the mountains.

Hi Cee. My first attempt at joining your B/W photo challenge. It was an interesting journey into my archives. Didn’t realize that I had quite a number of wood shots. Love your water tower. https://odaciuk.wordpress.com/2017/07/13/cees-black-white-photo-challenge-things-made-with-wood/
