After 1 month off I am back for another Month of One Four Challenge by Robyn at Captivate Me
This month I am using a favorite picture i took on a recent trip to NZ, this is the Lighthouse at Akaroa on the South Island. I removed all the color, except for the reds, and then over saturated them. Perhaps a little dark, but it was very overcast, gloomy and grey. Perhaps next week I can add a little more light and depth

Not usually a fan of selective colour in black and white but the red in this picture really works. Great shot with so much potential for the coming weeks in the challenge.

A very effective use of colour – the red makes the lighthouse look like a warning device (which of course it is).
