Monochrome Monday with nature

A post for Monochrome Monday hosted by @old-guy-photos, for this week I will share a couple of shots from walks around Mondo Pond trails one of my favorite non-beach spots for a walk here in Milford CT.

^{Sony A6500 240mm F6.3 1/600 Sec ISO 800}

This was a little dragonfly I saw near the water on one of my walks, getting a shot of it, with my 24-240 Lens with an extension tube was a challenge and they seldom sat still in a spot for long, but I did manage to persevere and get this shot which is OK I think.

I Used to have a Macro lens with my old Pentax camera but have never got around to getting on for my Sony yet, it may be a while before I can afford one, but I really should play around with my extension tubes more often and get more macro shots.

And these flowers were in a houses garden near the trails, they look beautiful in color but I decided to try them out in Mono and I think they are still beautiful in another way when seen in mono and your not focusing so much on the colors

Unless stated otherwise all photos used in my posts are taken and owned by myself if you wish to use any of my images please contact me.

Nice shots for monochrome Monday. I like the little dragonfly. My experience from the summer is they are all over but so hard to capture :)
