Monday Collection!

My monochrome ............ The front wheel of our bike.....
My odd shot............close up of the wheel..............the disc brake!
My flower for today is the cyclamen growing at the base of our cherry tree.
It is miraculous that flower should rise by flower alike in loveliness. . . . William Carlos Williams, "The Crimson Cyclamen,"
There has been a definate change in the weather of late. Last week saw the delivery of our central heating oil. I wonder if there will be sufficient for the winter? We have had the central heating boiler serviced and just in time too as we had some bitterly cold days at the end of the week. Ironically, yesterday was a lovely day which I missed as I had caught the cold which had put Jon in bed for a couple of days. I could hear all the motorbikes passing and wished we were out with them, but it wasn't to be. Today I will be catching up on housework and making sure Wilma gets a good long spell on the beach. Thanks for the many words and messages...still no news. D

I think motorbikes are an artform! I love these photos, Denise.

Meri has just said, bikes were made for B&W.
In the top shot the telescopic fork is straight and in the second appears curved.
Is that odd or is that Odd.

Beautiful shots again Denise. We are without bike at the moment. There are a lot of bikes up here in North Powys and it always gives a pang of jealousy when they whizz passed.

Thehe wheel isoslated is perfect for an odd shot, and the mono is the perfect touch.

Great series of Monday shots, each perfect to its theme.
I love all your bike shots. The monochrome ones look fantastic, and the odd ones look very odd.

Perfect posts all. I really like the wheel in monochrome. BJ

Carver said...

That is amazing to me how the bike wheel looks close like that in black and white. It's such an interesting shot. I love cyclamen and am so happy to see mine.

Reader Wil said...

Hi Denise, how are you doing now? I hope you'll soon be as good as new. I love cyclamen, but we don't have them in gardens here in Holland, even if we have the same climate you have.
Have a nice day!

Mojo said...

I thought it was just my eyes playing tricks, but someone else noticed the change in the fork between the two shots too. (What a relief!)

I love the texture that B&W gives these shots.

You sure have an eye for picture taking but I never real thought a motorbike was an art form but you sure bring it out.

The weather and trees are sure changing. It was a little nippy yesterday.

The coffee is on.

Cath said...

How are you doing pet?
Hope you're keeping your chin up.

Love the mono - the bike's made for it. And the odd shot.
Your flowers give the splash of colour we need at this time of year!

My odd shot and mono are on the usual blog. Flowers on the other blog.

Rune Eide said...

Sorry to hear about your friend - all my sincerest sympathy.

Maria said...

I love them so much,their colour is so beautiful! I love them best when they grow in the woods!

Leslie: said...

Great photos, Denise! So crystal clear...what camera do you use?

Sure hope you're feeling better from that nasty bug.

Maria said...

Loved your flower! Discrete and nice!

mannanan said...

That disc brake looks very futuristic. in mono. Well done.

Smart Mouth Broad said...

I know how you feel. Within days of purchasing a new motorcycle, both my husband and I came down with bad case of the flu. We were out of commission for at least a week and didn't ride for another two weeks. Hope you are feeling better soon. Happy riding.

cyclamens wild shaped like flowers holding your heart wondrous Sandy

Unknown said...

Your monochrome photo and odd shot were very clever to combine them.

Interesting flower. I love the colors of the leaves against the color of the flower.

Claire said...

i think the disk brake kind of looks like a flower... certainly a thing of beauty :o)

Liz Hinds said...

Thta is an incredibly clean wheel! Did you polish it specially?!

Hope you're better soon. xx

Libbys Blog said...

You always take great pics D.
I didn't realise you had an Aga and oil???
Hope your feeling better soon! {{hugs}}

photowannabe said...

Great monocrome shots Denise. I really like the detail.
So sorry to hear you are under the weather. Hope you and Jon will be well enough soon to hop on your motorcycle and enjoy some fresh, brisk air.
