Underpass

Starting to play around with black and white for this month's Flash of Red, though this isn't my official entry. Under the Great Cambridge Road.

Beautiful bright and sunny but still cold. Tried to head into the office early as I had a half day but failed miserably especially with a couple of stops - into Sainsbury's to pick up crisps contributions and Pret for a naughty cheese toastie breakfast - setting the pattern for a day of junk eating.

Busy as it always seems to be when you're leaving early with issues with the campaign site URL and other things to sort. Got a haircut asking her not to cut it too short as Dave's not keen, but now I'm not keen on how quiffy it is.

Scoffed a salmon sandwich with crisps and a delicious coconut chocolate thing from Pret - more rubbish eating - before leaving to go to Dave's work.

They'd decided to have a games afternoon and as they finish at 2.30, I needed to leave early to get there. A very jolly afternoon and early evening of more naughty food and several games: Articulate (twice), our picture Telestrations game (twice) and Blackjack which I never really took to.

Drove home giving Sharon a lift and talking about her great night at the Abba show.

Love this b&w image, full of leading lines and symmetry. I get the hair thing, I am always trying to get my hairdresser NOT to cut too much off. I always start liking it just as I'm due a cut!

I love the symmetry on this one and the person really turns it into a storytelling image fav

Great shot like it๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Š

Wonderful shot from a very busy day!

Awesome

eerie shot, a bit post apocalyptic
February 2nd, 2024  
Brilliant shot. Love the lines and slight creepiness
February 2nd, 2024  
Fabulous perspective and great choice of black and white.
Iโ€™m not fussy with my hair cut, shorter means I wonโ€™t need to go back so soon, which is perfect for me ๐Ÿ˜€

A lovely shot, good perspective and nice leading lines. Works well in B&W as well, Fav!

That sounds like a day from when we were 20 :). Congratulations, very well done!
February 2nd, 2024  
Great leading lines.
February 2nd, 2024  
Lovely lines & long line. Iโ€™m not so keen on an underpass they can be creepy!
February 2nd, 2024  
Super lines and pov

Lovely shot, works well in B&W. Always a bit wary of underpasses. Your days always seem so full & busy.
February 2nd, 2024  
Cool pov and shot.

Love this

Ed have one just like that in Hendon - Ive loved taking shots in there at various times of the day
February 3rd, 2024  
Very cool shot. Love all the tones on the tiles.

@happypat @carole_sandford just to put your minds at rest, this one is very short and easy to cross very quickly and also well used. I'll tell you a secret - there was a second person in the tunnel but I thought it was a better composition with just the one, so I magic-erased them out!
February 3rd, 2024  
Fantastic patterns and lines.
February 3rd, 2024  
I like the sound of a magical eraser, I wish I had one.

I really want to know what colours the wall tiles are

Great symmetry - the lone pedestrian is a nice focus point

This is a good image but needs to bump up the contrast and colour swapping to make it more impactful. Again try playing in post production and see what you achieve.

@marshwader I see what you mean about the contrast, not sure what colour swapping is. I use basic post processing, Google photos and Snapseed?
