This week I'm posting a photo taken at Hergest Croft Gardens in Herefordshire - it's another from my archives.
I like the inky black velvety-ness of the petals of the auriculas especially against the terracotta pot. They're pretty plants in colour, in black and white I think they're stunning.
I'm linking up with Charly over at PODCast, so pop over there to see more black and white photos.
Another photo from my 2012 archives gets the black and white treatment this week, this one's of my Dad with a Pringle beak, like you do...
It's a favourite photo of Dad and I'm posting it this week as we celebrate his "Garnet" birthday - happy 80th birthday Dad!
It's week 2 of Charly from PODCast's new black and white photography project - see her Week 2 London Eye photo and post on Inspirational Photographer Ansel Adams, a favourite of mine since we saw some of his work when we visited Yosemite National Park back in 2000.
This week I've chosen a photo of Holkham Beach in Norfolk taken in May 2012. Holkham is a great beach and like many of Norfolk's beaches has vast stretches of unspoilt sand, and walking on untrodden sand is a bit like walking on freshly fallen snow - you want to put your footprints everywhere... Or I do anyway!
It's the footprints I like in this photo, the criss-cross and mish-mash of textures that immediately transport me back there climbing up the dune so I can see the sea!
And btw, these aren't all my footprints!
