This is the only Black & White Sunday this month, and I decided that it should be Traces of the Past (the recurrent photo challenge on this blog). Here is one of the most beautiful landmarks of Northumberland – the famous Bamburgh Castle. The day I took this photo it glistened nicely in late, golden sunlight, but for this opportunity I decided to show it in silvery tones i.e. in black and white.
Don’t feel bad if there are no old buildings in your surroundings, past can be found in many forms, not just architecture. I count on your original interpretations to prove that. Take your time responding to the challenge and most of all HAVE FUN!
What an amazing structure and you have captured it so beautifully! That would certainly be an amazing sight to see! Thanks, Paula! Have a beautiful week! 😀
I have finally reached a point where I know I’m not going to find a single castle. It’s just not going to happen. So I shall have to find other old things 🙂 But the castles are so totally cool!
I really should go way north to see some of the splendours it has to offer, but as it tends to be cool and damp I’ll enjoy your photos instead. Mines definitely not architecture 🙂 https://lucidgypsy.com/2018/04/18/ghostly-traces/
A wonderful photo of the castle in black and white Paula.
I have been thinking of what I can post hence the delay in getting something to you.
Again I have done a bit of my life. I hope you enjoy it x http://bushboy.blog/2018/04/19/traces-of-the-past-pottery/
Bamburgh Castle is so beautiful Paula. This is my entry: “https://balance440.wordpress.com/2018/04/20/black-white-sunday-traces-of-the-past-y4-04/”.
Have a nice weekend!!!
I love Bamburgh. I was so glad to go back there last Autumn. Thank you for capturing it so beautifully for me xx

YOur photo captures the beauty not only of the castle, but its surroundings. Stunning Paula. Here’s mine this week. My thoughts are at the beach, in an attempt to ignore the freezing cold temps outside, when it should be spring!! https://dailymusing57.com/2018/04/18/black-white-sunday-traces-of-the-past-9/
