Theme 35.
Green Park, London (near Buckingham Palace).
I'd been having a lovely day mooching around Greenwich, and had started my way back to the coach station for my trip home. I could have gotten the tube to Victoria and then walked up to the coach station, but jumped off a stop early at the Green Park stop, to take some photos of the park and walk past Buckingham Palace, before the short walk up to the coach station.
I have this in colour too, but slightly cropped the bottom of the people/bench, and anyway, it works better in black and white.
One day, I'll get a photo as good as Ansell Adams, the great black and white landscape photographer. I just love black and white, and landscapes, so I'm looking to explore this man's works; from the little I've seen, they're truly stunning. I'm nowhere near his level, but this was one of my favourites from London, together with the Silhouette one!

What a nice and peaceful photo. Reminds me of a park right next to where I lived in Ealing a few years ago. It's amazing how black and white can bring out more from some pictures.
I love your black and white photos. Grammom

Mmmm - I so want to be in this scene right now! The black and white is beautiful.

Stunning photo. Oh, I miss London a lot when I see this. (moved from there to Edinburgh (last summer) after 7years in and around London)
