Chicory

Suddenly our yard was full of pretty blue flowers. These guys are weeds, but they're really attractive weeds.

The 366 Snaps project photographs were mostly chicory a year ago, with the important exception of this Trumpet Vine pic, which I actually shot in color.

Using the Nikon 1 V1 to capture monochrome images generates still another version of the "black and white is partly an attitude" conundrum. When the camera's set to monochrome, the V1's electronic viewfinder shows me greyscale images, so I'm framing the photographs in black & white--but once again my software ignores the b&w flag JPG in the Nikon NEF (RAW) file and shows me the pix in living color.

Thus today's originally-monochrome photograph comes to you in these bright colors. Enjoy!
