I’m up to my old tricks again this week, and combining two challenges. Whilst searching out some images for Ailsa’s Travel Theme of Misty, I realised that these images were all taken on the threshold of an adventure, a journey… Two birds and one stone sprang to mind, as the WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge this week is Threshold. (Click the links to see more examples of each of these themes).
Scotch Mist – this one was taken on Skye, and is of the Old Man of Storr on a misty morning. In this case,the adventure of exploring the Quiraing was delayed until the following day owing to the misty conditions.
as the cloud soon lifted and we travelled on to the amazing remote Piano Grande.
it might suit the misty aspect..what do you think?
Beautifully combined and I like the B&W processing – suits the images very well.
Thanks, Jude, glad you thought so! Have a good weekend!
It looks really great! My favourite is the last one, but they all have a wonderful misty mood, well done.
I think the monochrome works well, Sue – particularly in that last image. Beautiful.
Beautiful photos – the black and white gives them a timeless feel.
Enchanting surounding and magical pictures!
I think these are wonderful and the B&W is perfect. They wouldn’t be nearly as dramatic in color.
Really beautiful, black and white works so well here. I was thinking of those standing stones as I wrote my post.
These are really nice, Sue.
A wonderful “twofer” today Sue!
Thanks! I love to see if I can twofer now and again!
Oh these are REALLY lovely Sue . I’m particularly drawn to the Old Man of Storr .. full of atmosphere one feels anything could happen … something out of a legend .
Thanks, Poppy! And there was me thinking I had nothing that would fit the bill! I do have some images of Civita, I though I had posted some previously but find I haven’t, so one day!
I like the Valnerina photo, but the Civita di Bagnoregio is really great! Awesome with the mist, the hill and the bridge. Great B&W photo.
Many thanks, Cardinal – much appreciated! It was a great and unexpected sight!
Thanks, Jo! Glad you like them….
The mist adds a lot of drama, as does the B&W processing. Love the last one especially Sue.
Absolutely fabulous shots…I mean it!
Great entry again … very interesting with the black & white change, I would personally prefer them in colors.
Aah well, I had a monochrome moment!
I agree we need colour, but I am drawn to black and white for certain images….
Love the b&w and the ‘feel’ of the shots. Particularly drawn to the first image – it looks like somewhere I would enjoy exploring!
Thanks, Caz – I thought monochrome gave me the atmosphere I wanted!
