Ever since I got back to Dubai I've been feeling a little down because in the area that I live, everything is monochromatic and mundane. The houses are a gross shade of yellow, the sky is a gross shade of yellow, and I was missing the vibrancy of Montreal. Apart from that, the heat is unbearable and it's very difficult to go out and get decent pictures during the day because after a minute of being outside, you're covered in sweat. I tried though, and I got a few good shots. I'll be putting them up over the next few days. This is the first.

O beautiful... I like the B&W effect!

Another good B&W picture with an undeserving low CI. I get a lot too. The textures on the leaves is beautiful in BW, the shapes and shadows on the flowers works well too. Perhaps a touch more contrast might have enhanced it a little, but personally I like it the way it is.
