Monochrome Monday - 29th December


Another old photo - again of my mother - and I would imagine mid/late 1930's.


Rowing on a lake somewhere - possibly Platt Fields or Heaton Park in Manchester.

    Seems closer to the Forties, Petrus.Something about that rakish hat.

    Whenever, B&W is often timeless, it's a wonderful picture, Petrus. She illuminates with her smile.

    I do enjoy these very personal images, as they are natural monochromes.
