Janet Brien's photos with the keyword: black/white

(+7 insets!) I so rarely work within the realm of b/w photography, even though I adore the medium. I just can't bear to lose the color on most of my pictures. However, a few years ago a friend tagged me for a photo challenge on Facebook where I had to post a week of black and whites. It was really fun to be "forced" to use b/w, so I didn't scream when I dropped the color, since the pictures had already been shared in color! (also included are the other pictures I showed in that "7-day challenge" and the full-color version of the main image) You Need This: Google Nest Hub--$49 from Walmart Right now Walmart is having an incredible sale on this cool device that you really should have. It's a gorgeous photo frame that displays slide shows of your wonderful photography and the moment we got it working, I told Steve we must get another one instantly! The size seemed a little small at first (3.5" tall x 6" wide/1024x600px) but the image quality of the screen is simply stunning and the size is fine! You do need to have your pictures uploaded to Google Photos but once there, you just point the photo frame to show images from the folder you choose and it will then show image after image that you'll really enjoy. We will have one for each of our photos so I can sit and stare at Steve's images or enjoy memories of my own!) (By the way, this clever device is also a music player, a clock with alarms, shows you the weather, recipes and news, videos and whatever else you want…it's part of the "Google Home" suite that includes endless gadgets. Finally, if you want a larger screen size, the Google Nest Hub Max is larger but the price tag will make you scream--it's $230!! EEK!) Explored on 1/23/21; highest placement #1.

I've just returned from my trip to San Francisco to visit my father! I'll be posting many, many images from this trip! (If you are interested, I've uploaded 11 pictures in this batch, which include pictures of my childhood home!) I appreciate all of your comments everyone, thank you so much!! :) I hope you enjoy the show! This is a classic image of how I view one of my favorite places in San Francisco. Mt. Davidson is a large park area behind our home, and it's covered with Eucalyptus trees. It is foggy most of the time, and this image is what I think of when visualizing this place. This image was taken during my trip to San Francisco during September 12-15, 2011.
