Lund Street Scenes

Just a few street scenes in the town of Lund.

Iron Ring

Iron mooring ring at the harbours edge.

Waters Edge Sans Colour

The contrast of smooth fluid meeting textured hard rock.

Monochrome Forest

Sometimes, even in nature, colour just gets in the way.

Nature in Monchrome

This photo was quite boring in colour, just awash in pale green with nothing appealing at all to look at, however in monochrome it has more of a beauty for me as it highlights the leaves in a wonderful contrasty abstract pattern that puts natures order in the foreground. Amazing what stripping colour from a scene can do.
 

Tree Silhouettes in Monochrome

Trees have wonderful shapes & forms and make great subjects for photography. Sometimes that great natural look is straight up. I used the 16mm Fisheye for this as it gives a great perspective. Converted into low-key black and white images in DxO PL6.

Time To Reflect

Sometimes colour just gets in the way...

No desaturation required because the subject was already very monochrome.
