This photograph was taken in The Dolomites, Italy, at the Cadini Group Mountain range.
Cadini di Misurina is an awe-inspiring mountain group of the Sexten Dolomites in the Italian Dolomites, Northern Italy.
Defined by sharp, slender spires and pinnacles, the jagged Cadini di Misurina mountains look like the imagined backdrop of a high fantasy epic. It was taken at the early morning hours with a great amount of fog surrounding them, on September 26, 2024

This was shot at the shopping center called Sunset Place in South Miami. This is the spiral staircase in this complex. I shot both from the top of the stairs looking down and from the bottom looking up. Sunset Place is a rather eerie place these days. There are very few stores that are occupied. This shopping center is scheduled for demolition and replacement by a new complex. I have visited here several times to shoot. I find many interesting things to shoot each time I visit.

? In this challenge, we invite you to explore the artistic realm of monochrome photography. While traditionally associated with black and white, monochrome can encompass a wide range of tones and hues. Embrace the power of a single color or a limited color palette to create captivating images. Whether it's a spectrum of shades of blue, the elegance of grayscale, or the richness of sepia tones, let your chosen monochromatic palette enhance the mood, evoke emotions, and accentuate the subject matter. Look for scenes, objects, or people that lend themselves well to the chosen monochromatic scheme, and experiment with lighting, composition, and post-processing techniques to achieve the desired impact. This challenge is all about exploring the artistic possibilities of monochrome photography. So, unleash your creativity, play with colors, and capture the beauty of a single tone. Good luck! ??
