Today's Flowers, Monochrome Monday and Odd Shot Monday

Monday is a great day for photo memes!

First up this week is Monochrome Monday by blogging pal Aileni. Here is a shot I took of the horses that draw the canal boat in Metamora.



To showcase other b&w photos, please go here.

Here is just an odd shot of plants growing in a crack near a bridge. I guess the seeds were deposited by the wind, floods, or birds.


Other odd shots are here.

The final, but certainly not least at all is Today's Flowers meme. I love flowers of all sorts, and I love viewing everyone's choices.

This photo of summer flowers was taken outside a store in Metamora.

Your picture of the horses is timeless. Really splendid.
Thanks for coming along to MM - I am struggling to complete the monochrome theme with a week's entries. See you tomorrow.

Do indeed like the image of the horses in monochrome. Nothing like a working horse to bring out the memories.

Love all these pics! The monochrome horses look so much like a link between old worllds and new! And the flowers in the basket look so romantic!

The horses are absolutely beautiful! I love the way you've done this photo.

Love your Odd Shot, too. I don't know what that brave plant is. I looks a little bit like our hawthorn, but if it's a tree like that it's not going to do the bridge much good!

Your summer flowers are colourful and pretty.

I love this canal horses photo. The light gives a suggestion of mist rising from the canal. Great perspective on the horses too.

Wise girl three meme's in one post.

The horses in front of the house could be from a long time ago. Great shot! I have plants growing out of cracks in my sidewalk...keep trying to kill them but they keep coming back. Love the flowers. By the way, you really shocked me when you mentioned The Secret of Roan Inish. No one I know has ever heard of it, let alone seen it. Amazing!
