Is that a conversion of a colour photo to black and white or a photo of a black and white object?

Been looking for things that are actually largely black and white all week. Found this Yamaha in a car park.

Black and chrome, but close enough I expect. ;)

Moulting white dog + Springtime + Dunnock doing motherly things + Mothers' Day = Black & White  ;)

As soon as I saw this Dunnock gathering Dog's blowing coat earlier today, which we'd put out specifically for the nest-building birds, I thought of the Challenge. She was a laugh as she tried desperately to add more and more fluff to that she'd already collected, inevitably losing half when she took off!  ;D

This was one of the shots I thought about entering before going with the Bantam cock shot - Perhaps the Aah factor may have helped  :-\

Poor thing turned up a few days ago and is finally eating after being dewormed - Now we need to find it a home before our moggies get upset.  :tup:
