Another week, another Monochrome Madness, and another batch of fantastic images.
The next theme is the first week of August and the theme is Movement.
This is my contribution this week. I took this with the Lensbaby Composer Pro, macro converters and the double glass optic. I set it up inside near a window. I really like the way the Lensbaby gives it a lovely softness. As I said yesterday I am enjoying playing around with them. I’ve been using them with my old camera, the Nikon D300s. I don’t know what the flower is, but it was growing in my garden. I’ve suddenly decided that I want to have lots of flowers in my garden.

Monochrome Madness each week and if you wish to participate and submit an image here is how you do it:-
- You must email me the image you want to include and if you have a blog or website, or somewhere else, please include the link. My email address is leanne@leannecole.com.au
- The image size should be low res, so the largest side should be 1000 pixels or less.
- Please insert either your name or your blogs name in the file name.
- Remember I am on Australian time, so with GMT I am +11 hours at the moment, I publish my post on Thursday morning.
- If you need more help with sending images, and get confused about time zones, etc, well, there is a great website called The World Clock, if you go to that and look at Melbourne time, if it’s before 6pm on Tuesday evening, then you can still send me images. If it’s after that time, you can send me an image, but it will be set aside for the following week.
- Remember to include a link to your blog or website.
- Please remember to resize your images, it is fairly simply, you just need to go into any editing software and usually under Image you will find, resize, scale, or image size, something like that and you can resize your image there. Change the dimensions to pixels and make the longest side 1000 pixels or smaller, hit return, and for most types of software that should change the other side automatically as well. Just remember to save it with a different name so you know it is the smaller version. If you have any problems, please contact me, I don’t mind helping out.
Please note you don’t have to be a WordPress blogger to be in this challenge, you can have a link to a Facebook page, a Flickr page, anywhere really, or no link. We just want to encourage people to do monochrome images, just for the madness of it. Just to let you know also, that as soon as the challenge is published, all emails and images you have sent me are deleted from my computer.
So many wonderful images Leanne .. Love your flower, special!
Thank you Julie.
Once again a great collection of photos – I just HAVE TO send you a photo soon again – so I not only enjoy – but also contribute sometimes!
And so you have, thanks Truels.
Hi Leeann, I always love Monochrome Madness! There are some gorgeous images here. I like to comment on the individual works but no longer can do that. Congrats to all the photographers.
That is great to hear Jeni, unfortunately it is one of the major problems with this theme, you can’t leave comments on individual photos.
Lots of great entries for this weeks MM. I like how everyone’s perspective is so different. It makes for interesting viewing. 🙂 Thanks for using my photo as the feature.
It certainly does, and you’re welcome.
I love your flower, Leanne! Keep it up and plant more.
Lots of gorgeous shots here today.
Thank you Nicci, yes, I am starting to think of things I can plant.
There are, so nice to see.
although, we have a wonderful collection again, I guess #25 most outstanding. the other 4 favorites of mine are: . #2, #3, #19 and #26. But, a ‘well done’ for all of you!
I agree, well done to all Solaner.
PS I can’t see the other comments.
Sorry, I’m being very lazy today, am just approving them now. Though we don’t get many comments for this anymore.
and sorry I am so behind these days- too much to do this next month!
I know the feeling Cybele, I feel like I’m constantly chasing my tail these days.
🙂
lovely submissions this week – your flower is superb, 14,15, 17, 19 caught my eye first.
Thank you Cybele.
This is such a great series this week, Leanne, so many images I like… But I particularly want to mention #3, 14, 17, 23 and yours, 26! What is this Lensbaby??
It is Chris, seems to get better all the time. Thank you so much. Lensbaby lenses are special lenses that give you special effects, very good for blurring things.
Awesome stuff from everyone.
It’s great to see how monochrome works in different ways.
I agree, lots of great stuff.
Wow stunning capture with the lensbaby you have mastered it beautifully … More magic again👏
Thank you Liz, it is quite a learning curve.
your flower is lovingly soft Leanne 🙂
And wow.. love the image by Wendy (#9).. what a nice moody picture..
Lots of great entries this week!
Thank you Pieter, I took lots, but many didn’t work.
That’s great to hear.
