One of the things we used to do with Monochrome Madness each month we would also do a challenge. In 2014, I think it was we had a challenge that was about doing a monochrome image with a touch of colour.
Christmas is all about colour and then making those images black and white seemed such a shame. So we decided that would do them with a touch of colour in the images.
Below are some of the images that I did for it. It is an interesting effect. Not something I usually do, but it was nice to have fun with it.
Participating in Monochrome Madness
If you would like to participate in this challenge please post photos on your blog and use the tag Monochrome-Madness, as then I can use the reader to see what you post. Also, use the tag mid-week monochrome to catch Bren’s as well.
I’m afraid I don’t use Social Media much anymore, but maybe tag it #monochromemadness for Instagram and I will try and look. That would be brilliant.
Hi Leanne 🙂 I discovered your challenge via Bren’s so I’m joining in for the first time this week! I do like playing with selective colour but this first contribution is pure black and white – I hope that’s OK? https://www.toonsarah-travels.blog/gallery-seeing-the-sage-in-black-and-white/
That’s great news. I didn’t do it this week, but will start again next Wednesday. I look forward to seeing your monochrome images. Though the touch of colour was just for that one week. Thank you.
Awesome one 💕

I agree, thank you Shilpa.
Fascinating poem with awesome photos. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you.
I love using selective colour. I love the splashes of red 🙂
Thank you Bushboy, it can ben an interesting experiment. 😀
I remember when we did this. Been too busy to join Monochrome Madness these last two weeks. Does make for festive photographs.
It was a while ago RJ. I know what you mean about busy, it is like that at this time of the year.
I like that touch of color!
That’s great Marland, thank you.
You’re welcome!
😀
I love the touch of color. Something I have wanted to try but haven’t done it yet. 😊
Sounds like it is time that you tried it. good luck. Thank you. 😀
With more snowy days coming, it should be the perfect time to experiment. 🙂
That sounds like fun, the heat is about to hit us, so could be the same here.
Enjoy the warmth. 😊
It is a bit of a shock, it has been so wild, and bam, here it is. No getting used to it slowly. I hope you aren’t going to be part of the massive storms coming. Keep warm.
Not looking as bad as forecasted yet but we will see. 😊
Fingers crossed. A white Christmas maybe?
With snow falling now, it is definitely looking like a white Christmas. 😊
I’m kind of jealous, not something we will ever have here. Take care.
We will gladly send some your way. 😁😉
Please do. 😀 😀
Nice black and withe effects with a touch of red.
Thank you Picpholio
Lovely photos! I also no longer use social media, something I credit my son with suggesting. Glad to be rid of the wasted hours forever scrolling through mindless Facebook and Instagram posts. Now, I’ve returned to my blog, the only social media vice I currently engage in!
I am much the same, I have more time for myself, my home and my garden. I like blogging so much more, I don’t there is something about it that really appeals to me and I’m happy to hear I’m not the only one Julie. Thank you.
