Weekend Cat Blogging and Photo Hunt: Monochrome
This week’s Photo Hunt theme is easy. We have tons of monochrome photos, from art photos to snapshots and everything in between. Here is a snapshot of Luna taken this morning with a black-and-white film preset on the iPhone Hipstamatic app:
This photo, with Luna walking among the chrome pillars around CatSynth HQ, could have easily worked for last week’s theme as well.
Looking back, I have definitely moved between periods of color and black-and-white in my photography. 2010 was probably the most monochromatic year for me. Here is a monochromatic close-up portrait of Luna I used for a Weekend Cat Blogging back in 2010.
We should do some more portraits like that again this year.
My video from last week’s performance came out quite dark, and ended up being a de-facto monochromatic piece with a purple tint. I encourage visitors to check it out in yesterday’s gig report.
The Saturday Photo Hunt is up. This week’s theme is Monochrome.
The Carnival of the Cats will be up this Sunday at Mind of Mog.
And the Friday Ark is at the modulator.
Weekend Cat Blogging and Photo Hunt: Steel
For this week’s Photo Hunt theme of Steel, we once again did into the CatSynth archives for a couple of views of Luna with our metallic modernist interior design:
Technically, some of this is chrome, but I am pretty sure the metal in the black table below is in fact steel.
We opted for archival photos this week because CatSynth HQ is not the best backdrop at the moment, between the cleanup inside and construction outside, which has many things here out of place. But the scaffolding used by the construction crew is also an example of steel:
Hopefully, we can put things back in place here by the middle of this month.
The Saturday Photo Hunt features the theme of STEEL this week.
The Carnival of the Cats will be up tomorrow at Meowsings of an Opinionated Pussycat.
And the Friday Ark is at the modulator.
