Today we are having everyone’s favourite theme: landscape. The only trick is that it has to be in black and white. My memories have taken me to Poland, this time on the shores of lake Czorsztyn.
A path, a meadow, some trees, and an old castle hanging above a lake; what more should a landscape have?
Your photo reminds me of an old black & white postcard I have from the small town in Poland(Galicia) my husband’s family is from. (Niebylec) Amazing the similarity though the postcard is from the 1930’s! Beautiful countryside.
Hurrah! My favourite subject indeed even, and especially in B & W. Your Polish scene does indeed give us everything. I love the way the light catches that curving glimpse of the path through the trees, and v. dramatic overarching sky. And I’m enjoying this music track. Wishing you a less busy Sunday 🙂
Ha, I went to see your post before reading this. Why did I think that all of you were landscape photographers. This entry may easily contradict you. I had fun taking photos for the weekly challenge that I will post tomorrow, so yes, I managed to have some relax time this weekend. Thank you, Jude 🙂
Thank you, Sylvia. Of all the scores that I have posted lately, I still like the music in Thursday’s Special – Calm best. I hope that your health has improved. xx
Lovely shot Paula 🙂

No pressure, she says 🙂 I think the shot I have in mind might be more brooding than beautiful…

I’m not really a landscape photographer and have only recently begun to experiment in this field. Usually I focus on the details. But I think this view might have worked in B&W. See what you think: https://smallbluegreenwords.wordpress.com/2016/11/27/black-and-white-sunday-a-view-fit-for-a-queen/
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday Paula, hope you managed to relax some.
