It's Friday! There was no prompt last week because I sort of went into lurk mode - it's a bad habit that I need to work on.

This week's prompt is black and white.

Whether it's a two-tone cat or something quite mundane made dramatic with filters, I want to see how the lack of colour can be a focus of your shot.

Usual rules apply: No NSFW and no shots you didn't take yourself.

Thanks! I also am not very familiar with Digikam, in terms of image editing. I opened it in GIMP and tried adjusting the things you suggested. Here's a new version, it definitely looks more black/white but not sure if it's an improvement:

black and white tree/sky image, attempt 2

It's kind of up to you if you're happy with it, but it does seem more stark now.

Yes, I guess each have their own good qualities.
