Hello wonderful members! :squee:


I would like to remind everyone that we are a group dedicated to viewing the Natural World in monochrome. No man-made objects (unless they're a very very very minor element of the image (ie: there happens to be a barn behind the bird you were photographing, or certain 'weather' or 'sky' shots).  That said, thank you all for being a part of this group. I love looking back through this collection often as there are so many fantastic shots in here. Thank you all for submitting and being a part of our monochrome-loving collective!

PS: I'm back after a rather long  hiatus, submissions should be approved with more consistency! Sorry!  <3

hey there! Usually we want to see what you can do with a camera, less manipulation. You can always submit it anyway to the appropriate gallery and we will take a look at it :)
