Monochromes in Mount Wellington

Mount Wellington is a 1,271-meter peak near Hobart, Tasmania, offering stunning views of the city and surrounding landscapes. I am linking this to Leanne’s Monochrome Madness Challenge.

Leading Lines at the MONA

HOBART, TASMANIA We had an amazing day at the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA), Australia’s largest privately-owned art museum. I was thoroughly impressed by both the scale of the museum and the incredible diversity of its collection. It truly offers a unique and thought-provoking experience. Here are photos from Mona that I am…

Walking on Stairs & Steps

“Life is like walking on stairs; You have to take the first step to reach your destination.” The guest host for this week’s Monochrome Madness is Aletta from “Now at Home” and she has the theme of STEPS AND STAIRS. Here are some steps and stairs from my travels through the years. Let me start with the…

Reflections

This week is a themed Monochrome Madness week, hosted by Leanne. “Reflections” is the theme, and I absolutely love reflections! This one is a reflection that I saw close to home. As usual it is from the local wetlands. This one is a random puddle capturing the reflection of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Many people…

Birds on the Shoreline

Here are some of the shorelines we captured during our road trip along the Great Ocean Road, from Geelong to Port Campbell. And from some 6,000…

Monochromes in The Philippines

It’s been a year and a half since my holiday in the Philippines, but the memories remain vivid. The trip was filled with fun, nostalgia, and new experiences with friends. I’m especially glad I had the chance to visit Ilocos as well. Here are some monochromes which may not be my favourite shots but they…

Monochromes at the Beach

For this week’s Monochrome Madness Challenge, hosted by Brian of Bushboys World, I’m keeping it local with images from beaches in Victoria, Australia. The theme is “At the Beach”, and I’m excited to share these monochrome shots of Victoria’s coastal landscapes.  “To go out with the setting sun on an empty beach is to truly…

Monochromes in the Cloudehill Garden & Nursery

This week’s Monochrome Madness Challenge doesn’t have a specific theme, so I decided to follow Leanne’s lead and showcase some flowers in monochrome. I captured these photos at Cloudehill Nursery in Olinda, a charming town in the Dandenong Ranges. I am linking this to Leanne’s Monochrome Madness and for Cee’s Flower of the Day Challenge

Great Ocean Road in Monochrome

This is not a themed week for Leanne’s Monochrome Madness. So I have decided to feature The Great Ocean Road in Black &White. This is one of the world’s most iconic scenic routes which spans 243 kilometres along the stunning coastline of Victoria, Auatralia. I am sharing this for Monochrome Madness.

Monochrome Trees

“There is always Music amongst the trees in the Garden, but our hearts must be very quiet to hear it.” – Minnie Aumonier This week is a “themed” Monochrome Madness  week, and Sarah at Travel With Me is hosting with the theme “Trees”. For me, not all trees look good in monochrome, it has to have the shape,…

Royal Botanic Garden Sydney

TRAVEL DIARY: SYDNEY I’ve visited Sydney numerous times, yet I’ve never had the chance to explore the Botanic Gardens until now. One of the perks of hosting visitors from overseas is discovering places I wouldn’t typically think to visit. This is the entrance to the Gardens, Austtalia’s oldest botanic gardens with all its natural beauty….

By the Pier in Monochrome

This week’s challenge has no theme but Leanne indirectly suggested that a Pier is good captured in Black and White. So here is my link to this week’s Monochrome Madness. Piers in black and white photos shows solitude and strength with the backdrop of the sea and sky.

Today’s themed Monochrome topic is People and it is a challenge from Sarah of Travel with Me blog. If you follow Sarah, you will know that she loves taking photos of people and she is very good at it. And if you know me, you will find that I am the opposite. So how can…

Monochrome Windows of Montsalvat

I don’t regularly join Leanne’s Monochrome Madness Challenge and it is my first time joining Dawn from the Day After blog, with the theme of Windows. I just happened to see Sarah’s post from Travel with Me … so here I am. Here are some window images from Montsalvat in Victoria. Montsalvat is an artist…

Flower in Monochrome

I haven’t joined this challenge for a long time, so here is my monochrome for today. And for Cee’s FOTD challenge

Textures in B & W

I typically shy away from posting black and white photos as I tend to lean towards vibrant, colourful imagery. My posts usually reflect my love for bright hues and cheerful colours. However, today, Sarah has prompted us to share monochrome texture images. So here are some that I’ve gathered from my gallery. These are originally…
