Intentionally Black

@wwwiebe has started a new Photo Challenge for 2020 And Created a new Account for the challenge,@photo52, the introductory post for this challenge can be found here Photo52 Challenge Post and this weeks challenge here

I thought it is such a cool idea and decided to try and join as often as I can, this weeks theme is Black and hence my title
Now it does State in the post

a person takes one photo every week based on a pre-defined weekly theme

This weeks theme is black and I went for a walk yesterday looking for shots that would fit the category, and I will include those later inthe post as well but for my entry for this contest I have gone for a Black and White image of the iced up fountain at Bryant Park also taken this week as an option for this contest, I do have other shots of it to edit which may well go in a future post

This was the other shot I was debating to use as my entry the lamp inthe shot is black but I thought this shot worked best in B&W

And another option I had with the cool black street lamp and the black on the stained glass windows of the Central Synagogue in Manhattan on Lexington by 55th Street.

The iced up fountain ⛲️ is an awesome photo!

I’m seriously impressed by your attention to little things...don’t think I ever would have seen a bike lock like that.

Best of luck in the contest!

Great photos! I really find the bike lock image appealing, but am not sure why. Maybe it's simplicity is soothing!?! Have a great weekend!

You did it and titled your post Intentionally Black 😉 but the title matches the theme and the photos very well.

The street lamps you have photographed are looking very cool and I like them. I have no idea about street photography, bu tI like that shot of the woman walking behind the street lamp.

Have a great weekend, my friend 😊


I would be quite !DERANGED if I didn't give you a !BEER and a !COFFEEA for this $trdo post 😉

You to have a great weekend

I don't drink !BEER anymore and never have had hot drinks myself,which some may say is !DERANGED but I do share !COFFEEA` now I must pop to the !MARLIANS !shop soon to pick up odds and ends

I'm curious what will come next ;)
Yes, you should include people sometimes, because city photos and people belong together somehow, while I prefer to have nobody in my landscapes ;)


I am a bit !DERANGED and not only I have a !BEER for you, but also a !COFFEEA which I have bought at the !MARLIANS !shop 😉

I think the more you shoot people the more you will get used to it 🙂 ... getting used to "shoot" people, that sounds weird though ;)

Cheers and !BEER ... back to the roots ;)

I shoot in color, but increasingly I translate color into a black and white image. Is it contagious :-))
Great shots!

The bike lock photo is so vivid! The kids walking in the sidewalk... quaint and yet so very citylife, all because of the color finish you chose for that photo.
Anyway, I wanted you to know that I will be showing my Wednesday walk on beautiful Sunday!
Have a wonderful Saturday, my friend @tattoodjay, and take care 🥰🌺🤙

Thanks I am trying to include people in my city shots more often these days I used to go out of my way to try and get shots without people but am now realizing for city shots especially having some people in shot makes for more interesting photos

You know I loved that fountain!! It just gets better and better throughout the winter! You really nailed the black!

Although the lamp posts are awesome and so cool, I have no idea why that lock really took my attention.

Awesome entry! Have a super Sunday!

Nice shots! I am hoping I can get out a little more this Summer and use my better camera to take some shots. It is all going to depend on my memory though. I often take the other camera on trips, but then when we go out and about, I forget it back at the trailer :)
