One Word Photo Challenge: Black

 

Trying to find black things I’ve photographed was surprisingly hard, I did not want to do black and white photos, as black was the the color of the challenge. I found black in lots of my photos, as a background, a shadow, but a black object not so readily found. Well here is the result of my search.

Grey skies, we just had more snow last night, but it is supposed to warm up again this weekend. Hopefully spring will be here to stay this time. Blue skies is so much more appealing than grey skies.

This is the season color,  as after winter everything is brown, the grass, the trees,  even these leaf buds are brown. Logs on the ground – brown is the color – but the shades are so lovely.

Here is southern Finland the spring is very early, like a month ahead. Today it was +9 C and I took a walk in the woods, loved seeing the sun coming between the trees. Beautiful shadows and love  details to see…this does good to the soul.
