I don’t shoot in black and white, but I took these photos on a walk yesterday planning to process them in Black and White for Hey Jude’s 2020 Photo Challenge #47: photograph nature in Black and White and experiment with high and low key effects.

I missed yesterday, posting everyday for a month is really hard for me. But yesterday I had an excuse: kind of a nice one. As I was getting the post ready my internet went down. After I rebooted it and started back my son called (he is in China) we had a two hour video chat! I was in bed before I remembered about posting. Oh, well.

Puget Sound

Tonight’s last light

Sometimes the sunset makes you feel like you are on a different planet. This evening was one such.

As the sun went behind the clouds.
A little after true sunset the light went peachy.
The peachy light reflecting on the water just before the light faded out.
