Mono Monday Vehicles
good morning Everyone, another weekend is done and dusted and another working week begins, Happy Monday
As is my habit on a Monday I am sharing a few mono images.
Someone asked me recently how I decide what images to share each week, sometimes I may look through my photo folders and find a few images and put them into a post with no real theme, but more often than not when looking through my photos I find one that I edit and like and then try to find some other images that will fit with it and come up with a theme.
For todays post this first photo of an abandoned car I came across out of the blue in the middle of a walk I was taking on one of the trails here, there was no sign of any road access to this spot so I assumed it had been there for quite a few years.

So that was the easy bit finding a first photo I really liked, now the challenge was to find some other shots that would somehow fit into a theme for this post, and after looking through my photos I decided lets go with a vehicle theme.
then I came across this shot of a Jeep I saw at Fort Tabor one morning as I was doing a sunrise walk, the owner pull up Park and was taking some photos of his jeep with his phone, and I took a few with my camera.
I have shared a shot of it before in color and had not thought of trying it in mono till preparing this post and I was quite happy how this one came out.

Having worked in peacekeeping for many years, or perhaps what inspired me to work in peacekeeping is the hope that one day wars will end and Peace will prevail and in Museums or on display in parks is the only place we will ever see military equipment.
