Geraniums in black and White
How would the world look in constant black and white? I do like to watch old black and white movies. The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, Mr. Blandings Builds his Dream Home , Dial M for Murder and of course It's a Wonderful Life are a few of my favorites. Watching I Love Lucy in color, I am not sure it would be the same. Most of my childhood memories are photographed in black and white. I can remember watching the Wizard of Oz and waiting for the movie to change from black and white and into color. My grandparents had a color television before we did and going over their house to watch television on Sunday nights was a treat. Today, I took pictures of the geraniums I bought on Monday. I like the color picture better right now, but tomorrow who knows?

I just love all the flowers on your blog! Geraniums are so beautiful, even in your black and white photo!
ReplyDeleteLovely blog....great pics. You are a very creative gal...pleased to meet you!
ReplyDeleteI grew up watching black and white too. I think it helped my imagination develop. What would Lucy have looked like with purple hair? You know she would have tried it. I like your pictures of black and white along with the color. In B & W we see detail that we tend to ignore with color. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Sweet Denise!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your blog and all the beautiful flower pictures! It makes my day each time I visit!
Have a wonderful weekend!

I think with black and white, you notice the texture more. The smoothness of the clay pots is really striking in the B & W.
ReplyDeleteI just bought Ghost and Mrs. Muir on video last week! Haven't had a chance to watch it yet. It's been years since I've seen it. Many years.
The black and white photo is very nostalgic looking, but I love the colored one!
