“Take the elevator,” he said but I had a hidden agenda. Seeing that the photos were taken in these lovely pastel hues, why would I need to invent these monochromes at all, as if I was some sort of mad photographer? Oh well, just a bit of fun. Anyway, this building in Monteverde, Roma is…

MM 3-34: Monochrome square madness
After quite a long while I’m taking part in Leanne Cole’s Monochrome Madness challenge again. This week’s theme was “square or rectangle”, an occasion to return to the Square Colosseum in Rome. For more photos of the Square Colosseum and Eur part of Roma click here. Photo: a © signature mmm production For Leanne Cole’s…
Monochrome repeat
I repeat the monochrome from yesterday in order to compare it with the original as I find it quite fascinating. (Actually, because I can see that I forgot to include the photo as taken.) Photo: a © signature mmm production For Leanne Cole’s MM 3-21: Monochrome Madness
MM 3-21: Monochrome Hotel Madness
Hotel Piran. There is one monochrome in there, promise. And the last few shots are from its terrace. I suggest you only come to watch, and be nice to all you meet going up. Photo: a © signature mmm production For Leanne Cole’s MM 3-21: Monochrome Madness
MM 3-20: Monochrome Road Madness
Sometimes the roads of Roma can get a little mad, but it’s nothing a bit of protection, spilled cherry tomatoes, a cleansing fire or a good sunset flare won’t fix. Photo: a © signature mmm production For Leanne Cole’s MM 3-20: Monochrome Madness, Road theme
MM 3-19: Monochrome lake madness
I visited two lakes during our Slovenia vacation. Lake Bled is more famous of the two and it can wait a bit. This is Lake Zbilje, artificially built but far from showing it, since it’s teeming with bird and tourist life. Might be the two go hand in hand. Photo: a © signature mmm production (except…
MM 3-18: Monochrome mountain madness
After a two-week break I’m glad to be back in Leanne’s Monochrome Madness collection. My stubborn way of choosing images according to my heart, not quality, might make some pros’ ears wiggle, but I really wished to see the skiing mountain from my youth a little bit better. Strolling the dog I encountered the familiar sights:…
MM 3-15: Monochrome Holy Moses Madness
This week’s Monochrome Madness has been brought to you by recent events. Lacking political leadership I’d settle for a holy Moses right now. And if I would, I know many will. Welcome to the new age of if not Aquarius, then I hope not the Plague, or the Hunger. This is the Fountain of Moses…
MM 3-14: Monochrome Niki Madness
The reason why I chose this particular photograph from the Garden to be black&whited lies in what became apparent once I did it. Considering how many photographs I have taken in Il giardino dei tarocchi, Niki de Saint Phalle’s Tarot Garden which lies in my vicinity, one would think that there are many better ones and one…
MM 3-13: Monochrome Home Madness
I confess that this time it might have been premeditated. This one was taken in black and white yet. Photo: a © signature mmm production For Leanne Cole’s MM 3-13: Monochrome Madness
MM 3-12: Monochrome Madness High
The photo of Ljubljana Town Hall watchtower, first as taken, then as contributed to Leanne’s High Monochrome Madness week. Click on the link below to view others doing their “high” impressions. Excellent! Photo: a © signature mmm production For Leanne Cole’s MM 3-12: Monochrome Madness High
MM 3-11: Monochrome Garden Madness
We’ve got to get ourselves back to the garden. Sorry, not sorry, but the best gardens in Piran and in Bežigrad, Ljubljana are taken. These photos are from the latter. My uncle is the curator. First my contribution for this week’s Monochrome Madness challenge. I find all the collected photographs this week especially happy-making. Click on the link…
MM 3-10: Monochrome Rolling Madness
Things to see by the river of Ljubljanica in the capital of Slovenia. As usually for Monochrome Madness challenge, I first present my contribution for this week. The photo in colour as taken is so bad that turning it black&white was the only solution if it was to be saved somehow, that’s why I won’t…
MM 3-9 Closed Monochrome Madness
Last week MM was on pause but since two weeks ago my contribution on the subject of “Closed” didn’t arrive in time, it is included this week. I took the photo in Orbetello at the start of a lovely walk with uncle and bestia along the lagoon with many great views and little surprises about…
MM 3-7: Monochrome Stubbornness
Sometimes I’m a bit on the stubborn side. Or let’s call it persistent. When I feel a photo, I don’t care about how bad it is technically. So here we have it, Orbetello from the monastery half way to the top of Monte Argentario. Why would anybody boast their meagre zoom like this? It made me happy,…
