Monochrome Monday
Welcome To My
Monochrome Monday
As always I am fashionable late. Just a bit busy running around spend money on things that are not even fun :( like a weedwhacker and not camera gear!)
I found this to be interesting as it is simply naturally monochrome. In other words, I didnt even edit it at all. It is in full color mode yet still monochrome-ish lol!
So this is the view today, much like the view yesterday and if I were a betting man, the view tomorrow as well.
I hope your week will be bright.
Thanks for stopping by!
All words and images are mine and can be also found on my various social media sites. Now I must add that some of the shots I steal from my son Ben @silver314 , but I feed him so he can sue me lol.

So simple, yet the image is so powerful. You really have an eye for that. Oh, you spent plenty of money yesterday and I know you will have a lot of fun with the stuff.
You are just built that way. ;)

Ha! Why is it women think men want to use gardening tools LOL!?! Well it less painful than doing taxes, but not as much fun as camera equipment :P
Actually my taxes are not that bad, but the garden is definitely much more pleasant. I hope you're having a wonderful day!

Oh, no!!! Let me run to the bank!
Oh its just my luck! You always get to me last. I see how it is. Lelele
No I would like to say that you were last, but in actuality I thought I put money in before I hit you. Perhaps I should have hit you a little harder.
That is so cool. I would never think of photographing a thimble. What drew you to the thimble?
I really like to do macro work of mundane objects. I like to see if I can see an artistic view of them like this: Just for you :)
@old-guy-photos,
I was all excited at first as I thought this was one of your Guess-What-It-Is challenges. I knew immediately: A trailer hitch for a 1984 Ford Bronco.
But then it turned out to be a post about "being one color." Crushed. And so, when I listened to Rainy Day People, I was already in the mood. :-)
I love Gordon Lightfoot. He writes lyrics like a poet.

There's no real reason to call in @dswigle but I thought she'd enjoy listening to some Ol' Guys' music.

Oh yes Gordon is a great one! I been a fan forever. Of course he hails from your neck of the woods.
Oh no, trust me Denise openly and vehemently hates most all of my favorites. Well to be honest there are a few we both appreciate like Pavarotti and Taylor Swift. The problem is she is an in-the-closet country music fan and I am slowly bringing her to accept and embrace the fact. Baby steps, my friend. Lets just say she wont be posting any Willie, Waylon, Hank, or Merle any time soon LOL.
@old-guy-photos,
I've got your back on this one, Ol' Guy. Here's an interesting point upon which to muse (@dswigle): Listen to the lyrics. Country music tends to create lyrics that are far better "poetry" than do most other genres (I couldn't care less about genres ... a good song is a good song). And, the lines between modern country and pop have dramatically blurred. Taylor Swift started out country and a lot of country can be heard in the Eagles, Bob Seeger, etc.
Denise ... listen to these lyrics ... if you consider "poker" a metaphor for "life," this is an incredibly potent poem: Ideas, ideals and insights. I would kill to have come up with some of those lines:

Let's try this again!

What a great subject! I love how well the details came out. And I love the fishing weight you posted in the comments.
The grass might get a little higher in that view. lol
Thought about joining this chalkenge often but I never know what to enter. I realize now anything will work. Sometimes simple is better.
Maybe tomorrow there will be a bird or something in the field to change up the view. Lol

It is indeed raining here today, Paul. You master manifestor you:):):)
Clouds, clouds, every where clouds...blocking out the sunshine raining on my day, dripping here and dripping there, can't you see the clouds...
Okay enough silly, your days sky looks a lot like our sky today. Clouds everywhere. It would be nice if there were more big ones and fluffy ones and some blue showing and such, but nope, just clouds.
