Mono Monday some recent shots from the past week

Good morning all another week begins and as is my habit on mondays I start the week with a mono Post, and this week there all shots I have taken on walks this past week.

Starting with this seagull sitting on one of the posts on the pier

and speaking of the pier, I have taken many shots of the pier, mostly in the early morning, but being there taking a walk waiting to pickup my granddaughter from her school nearby I noticed the supports of the pier and all the cool worn detail, in color it doesn't really stand out but i do like it in Mono.

Not this next photo of a dried up Hydrangea plant isnt truly a mono shot or edited for mono but the colors are as shot and I felt it sort of had a mono feel to it.

and my mind is shall I say bizarre or weird, when I saw this I thought to myself when they are like this are they called drydrangeas LOL

This next shot was in a little park I visited for the first time recently Victory Park here in New Bedford, which I shared some shots of in my Wednesday Walk post, a lovely little park but I think it will look so much nicer when spring brings new growth and the greens out.

What happens when I pick up my Grand daughter from school, is i get there early so I can get a park for my car near the exit she comes out, and if its nice and since i have 45 minutes or more to wait I take a stroll down to the water, and its funny on the days its cloudy and grew and I do not take my camera I see a few fishing boats coming into port, but on the days i take my camera I seldom see any this, on this weeks two visits I only saw one the Pamela Ann
