Ask anyone what "monochrome" means as it relates to photography, and you'll undoubtedly hear a response of "Black and white." This is incorrect. Monochrome images may be based in any color. The most commonly known alternate is sepia. Other old photographic processes which yield monochrome results include albumen and platinum. In this blog, I intend to present one or more monochrome images per week, to be posted on Saturday or Sunday for the period of one year. I hope my viewers will enjoy them.

Morning Mist Crow
The Breakfast Bunch polished up the dog kibble I'd spread on the Crow Board, then dispersed into the fog to take up various positions in Clyde's yard, hopeful for a presentation of the dessert menu. Some perched on treetops or branches, some patrolled the ground. Some wiser folk selected fenceposts where they could keep a watchful eye on both feeding stations in case I happened to bring out seconds as I sometimes do. Thin dawn light gave a blush to the mist, rendering the canvas of an August morning into a natural monochrome, and this Crow's Eye was drawn to one young sentinel who profiled himself against the pasture. "Caw!" he said as I closed the door, and when I turned around, he'd flown off to join the growing gathering of his kindred somewhere out of my line of sight. Clyde must have put out something tasty.
And with this image, Monochrome 52 concludes. I hope you have enjoyed this brief foray into a world seen through the Crow's Eye. Thank you for visiting!
