Monochrome Weekend - Toledo Ice Yacht Club
More difficult than being out in the bitter cold was choosing the shots for the post today.
Ice boating is a hundred-year-old tradition on Lake Erie (and other great lakes). There are not many times during the year that the ice is in the right condition to sail, so the ice boating is a very rare and short-lived winter sport.
This Monochrome concept came from Aileni at The Monochrome Weekend
Great shots! I love monochrome photos!!
ReplyDeleteThe bottom is stunning; an excellent choice for monochrome. I wonder what the bottom would look like with a vignette?
ReplyDeleteExcellent shots. I love the angry clouds in the first and the feeling of solitude in the second.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the weather on your side of the Cascades is the same as ours. Sunshine would be nice.

Lovely clean lines to these two shots, Yolanda. I love the shiny black.
ReplyDeleteTo do that would be worth getting cold for.
ReplyDeleteGreat choices, and great clouds in the back ground. Well done.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos, it's always good to have choices. ~ Calico Contemplations
ReplyDeleteYour second photo takes the prize.
ReplyDeleteThe stormy clouds and the sheen of the ice with the sail in the first photo are beautiful. What an interesting sport!

Oooh, I especially like the first one. Great job . I hope you managed to have a nice hot cup of coffee after freezing out there.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like fun. I always have trouble figuring out which pictures to post. I also have problems trying to get photos to look good in b&W. You did well with both.
ReplyDeleteSounds like great fun - but much too cold for me!
