Monochrome Weekend


This pin frame sits on my mantelpiece, a gift many years ago from eldest daughter.
Now being much enjoyed by tiny grandchildren.

A really beautiful art piece to photograph enabling
fine contrasts from light to dark. Lucky grandchildren.

I'm sorry about the pictures that went AWOL, but the servers where I store most of my photos went down over the weekend. They are now on-line again.
