Pauline of Gypsy Life and Memories are made of this has invited me to join in with this challenge. If you don’t know Pauline (Pommepal) then you are missing a treat. Living in Australia Pauline is always on the move with her lovely Jack by her side.
There are only two rules for this challenge:
- On 5 consecutive days, create a post using either a past or recent photo in B&W.
- Each day invite another blog friend to join in the fun.
Today I would like to nominate Carol of Which Way Now 101 to join in. Of course this is only if you have the time and want to.
Carol has been searching for her home for nine years and in doing so has travelled all over the United States. Now she is giving the UK her attention.
A ripper Jude – unexpected and unique. Looking forward to the rest of you b&w
They won’t all be this unusual 😉
Fascinating photo this Jude. Is it a water beetle on glass?
On water – but it was a very grey day and in converting it I bleached the grey as much as I could. TBH the insect could do with being sharper.
Ahh…now I see, thanks! Great effect…
At first I thought it might be a very distant helicopter type thing, then realised it is a pond skater (is that what they are called?)! Excellent shot. 🙂
Ooh, I think you might be right! I thought it was a water boatman, but having compared the two it does look more like a pond skater or skimmer. Thanks for setting me right 🙂
[scurries off to edit image name…]
I hadn’t noticed that you had named the image (naughty me, zero out of ten for observation…). I would have accepted your label of water boatman! 🙂
Nearly there with my entries Jude! Just double checking all of your entries and who you’ve nominated.
Great photo Jude 😀
