I had an idea to convert some images to monochrome, pick a few similar images….then I discover that WordPress weekly theme this week is variations on a theme…so here goes:

Theme nailed completely, Sue! Great stuff indeed.
Best wishes, Pete.
Many thanks, Pete, glad you like these. It was an interesting exercise.
Love all these walkways. And people add so much interest — as does the monochrome. Great collection!
Many thanks, Rusha! Expect to see more monochrome work soon….
Shadow walking at its’ finest. Nice work!
Great, thanks, Phil!
love your interpretation of the theme! the framing in “the play of light” photo is on point — the patterns, shadows, etc. are lovely. thanks for sharing.
Glad you like these, Andie
Great gallery, Sue! I especially like that first one with the couple, and Play of light. 🙂 🙂 I have a similar one to your tunnel, taken in Bath. Not seen it in B &W though.
Interesting! Play of light was not liked by my photo club a while back, but already. I have had two people mentioning it here! 😀😀😀
Far be it from me to contradict your photo club. 🙂 🙂 🙂
😀😀
Excellent approach to the theme, Sue. All the images come together really well.
Many thanks, Tish!
They are all very interesting but of course my favourite is the one in the cloisters. I love the way the light slants across the floor.
I have always been entranced by cloisters, but have almost never got the right light….this was the exception. I like this image, but it wasn’t received well at the photo club….I think my person looks too modern!!
Well I am no expert, but I do know what I like.
We all do, and should have the courage of our convictions!!
Indeed.
I love seeing a compilation of your photos. It really showcases your skill with light and shadow. I also enjoy all those pirated figures!
I thought it was interesting to see a compilation- I came across the work of Ando Fuchs the other day, and it gave me the idea when I saw a number of his images together

Wonderful images 👏👏
Thank you….I was pleased with them!
Play of light is a beautiful composition Sue
Glad you like it, Pauline!

Terrific theme Sue – especially like ‘out of the gloom’ – did you consider shooting any of them in B&W originally – never quite sure when to switch from one mode to another so often do both!
Thanks, Laura! I did consider a few for monochrome, and ‘out of the gloom’ was one of them! I shoot RAW, so it’s essentially not an issue whether I go the B&W or colour route, as the images are all post-processed…..
ah ha! I also shoot raw & jpg but recently have been using an app to transfer from camera to iPad but it only recognises the jpgs 😦
I transfer from camera to iPad with the iPad card reader (dunno what it’s really called), then I use Photosync to transfer the RAW images to the computer from the iPad. Sometimes, I will edit the RAW images on the iPad with Photogene
I transfer Raw to computer with a lead – so many options, so few moments to spare
Indeed!!

Love these especially the last shot. Great entry!
Thanks, Nicole….a lot of people seem to like the last one!
Difficult to choose between these, I like the cloisters but wish the man didn’t have anything over his shoulder, I like the underpass. Okay I’ve worked it out, the couple win! and you nailed the challenge, I still haven’t got a clue.
Thanks, Gilly! But which couple – the two in Piigliano, or the ‘Shadow in the morning’ pair?!! Like you, I don’t think cloister man looks right for the scene, but too bad, eh?
