Another Monochrome Year Has Gone By

The second anniversary of Monochrome Madness Challenge sneaked on me. It is a double themed week and I completely forgot. Besides a regular monthly theme that was Close up, I had to sneak number two into the image. As usual, I prepared another image and just realized 5 minutes ago that I need to find something else.

Thankfully, I managed to stumble upon this image that vaguely fits both themes. Is it a close up? Yes, it is! I thought of doing a macro shot, but this fits the bill. Does it represent number two in a sense? Yes, it does. Two towers, people! I told you once, I am the master of winging it. 😀

As always, my post-processing is so simple, a second grader could do it. I just added some drama to the sky, because the original had crystal clear blue sky and it looked a little bit flat in black and white.

Since this is the second anniversary of one of my favorite challenges, I would like to share with you a selection of images from those two years, a sort of reminder.

I hope this madness will last for many more years and I hope I will find joy in creating  monochrome images week after week.
