We're going back to colors for this week's Thematic. Actually, it's more the absence of one. Or an in-between kind of color, as grey is one of those colors that always seems to be wavering between one optical state and another.
I love the shade because it's moody. It makes you think. It makes you slow down a bit. It makes you feel something you might not have otherwise felt. Photographically, it forces you to lean a little more heavily on composition. Because vibrant color won't jump in and rescue a lousy shot.
Your turn: You know the drill...just post a grey-themed pic to your blog - or find something you've already posted - and leave a comment here letting everyone know where to find it. Repeat as often as you wish over the next week, and feel free to bring a friend along for the ride. Visit other participants to spread the photographic goodness. If you're new to Thematic, our weekly photo-sharing-learning activity, just click here.
Got one for ya! :-)

Carmi, I do like your shades of grey! I was excited to dig back into photos (it's far from grey around here right now!) HOORAY! Of course I was able to bring you this here. Enjoy your day, but not too much grey, okay!

I love this one, Carmi! The sharp diagonal lines cutting through the soft grey clouds are an incredible contrast for a grey photo!

Great bunch of grey pictures you've all posted, I've loved looking at them. Here's another grey picture.
ReplyDeleteOne of my images of a Warren through truss bridge. Once very common in Ontario, Elgin County still has a few, but they are becoming rare.
