Friday 25th June 2010.

Welcome to the new home for monochrome maniacs.

I've imported all the posts from Aileni's Monochrome Weekly blog, so you'll be able to look back at old favourites.
(Edited to explain that the imported posts have vanished. Sorry!)

As ever, the copyright of these photos remains with the photographers. Clicking on the picture will take you to their post.

I hope you'll like it here.

  3. It is very nice to see that this very special meme (my favourite) is continuing under very competent new management. I hope that the old management is also doing very well and I wish both of you all the best.

  13. Lovely as always. But, as a newby here, how are photos chosen, and what are the themes?

  14. @ 13 Stoploss:
    Aileni started this theme as a reason for people to post their B&W photos. He hoped that it might encourage beginners to improve their photographic vision and technique. No weekly subject was considered at that time.
    The whole idea took off much more rapidly than anyone expected - there seems to be a great love of good black and white photography.
    The featured photos each week were chosen purely because he liked them, and I'm continuing with that. They do need to have 'something' going for them - fuzzy, murky, shapeless photos don't appeal!
    Does that help?

  15. Dragonstar,

    Please do not visit my blog again. Being critical without providing constructive feedback is just mean. Never happened when Aileni was running the place. I'll not be back.
