Black and White With One Color
View allAll Photos Tagged black
Met this playful labrador male named "Buddy" on a walk. When I decide to shoot in monochrome, it usually is because the colors don't matter. In this case, they did matter, because his eyes were yellow and shone in the sunlight, giving him the look of a fantasy creature.
Still I changed it to monochrome, because I think his eyes don't lose their effect and I'm sure you can use a little bit of imagination. Hope you like it!
His owner told me that it isn't easy to convince strangers that Buddy is a nice dog. But he was very kind indeed, loved to play with Timmi and the owner's little toddler.

After the processing, this song popped up in my head:
'Paint It Black' by The Rolling Stones.
The first to lines are:
""I see a red door and I want it painted black.
No colours anymore, I want them to turn black.""
Sweet memories of Schiermonnikoog ;-))
Happy weekend!
A fairly close encounter with a Black-tailed Godwit in breeding plumage on a patch of grass next to the salt-water lagoon at Rosscarbery, County Cork.

A group shot of these beautifully coloured & patterned waders (complete with photo-bombing Lapwing).
Quite a hard crop, so this image is a little noisy, but I rather like this early morning scene.
This pic was taken @ Grauland, a great place for artistic photography

long black train
josh turner
There's a long black train
Coming down the line
Feeding off the souls that are lost and crying
Rails of sin only evil remains
Watch out brother for that long black train
Look to the heavens
You can look to the skies
You can find redemption
Staring back into your eyes
There is protection and there's peace the same
Burnin' your ticket for that long black train
'Cause there's victory in the Lord I say
Victory in the Lord
Cling to the Father and his holy name
And don't go riding on that long black train
There's an engineer on that long black train
Making you wonder if your ride is worth the pain
He's just a waitin' on your heart to say
Let me ride on that long black train
But you know there's victory in the Lord I say
Victory in the Lord
Cling to the Father and his holy name
And don't go riding on that long black train
Well I can hear the whistle from a mile away
It sounds so good
But I must stay away
That train is a beauty making everybody stare
But its only destination is the middle of nowhere
But you know there's victory in the Lord I say
Victory in the Lord
Cling to the Father and his holy name
And don't go riding on that long black train
I said cling to the father and his holy name and don't go ridin' on that black train
Yes watch out brother for that long black train
That devil's a drivin' that long black train

Image of a very friendly Black Cockatoo, taken at Kuranda’s Bird world. This mature fella was so friendly that almost landed on my 400 mm lens and was so curious about what I was doing. Definitely a happy & funny bird.
A few weeks ago I discovered this ditch with ca. 15 Black Tern nests. It is a rare species in the Netherlands and the nests are constructed by the foundation that is owning this piece of land. Many nests have a little fence for keeping the young safe from falling into the water, or being predated by nasty creatures.
I went back three times, because it is such a treat to see how they are fed. The picture more a less tells it all, the speeding parent with a giant dragonfly, the young squeeking and opening their beaks, the parent dropping the food on the fly, and then off for another meal. This goes on 16 hours a day!
It is amazing how fast they grow. These chicks four days later started practicing flying, and another 4 days later they were gone.
In the mean time in other nests you could see them almost grow every minute. For sure I will return next year to see this spectacle again!
I think I took about 1000 pictures, many off them worth while showing. Enjoy.
