“As a photographer you have a deep love for light, life and yourself. You know that the eyes of love aren’t blind, they are wide open. Only when your eye, heart and soul shine brighter than the sun, you realize how ordinary it is to love the beautiful, and how beautiful it is to love the ordinary.” ― Marius Vieth
Monochrome Madness is back with Leanne’s return from her visit in the States. Today’s monthly theme is “country” and will will be posted later today for your viewing pleasure on Leanne Cole’s blog. If you would like to participate and submit a photo in the upcoming weeks, please email your monochrome image to leanne@leannecole.com.au and include a link to your blog or website if you have one. It doesn’t have to be WordPress blogger, it can be a Facebook page, a Flickr page, etc. Include your name or your blog name. The image size should be low resolution, so the largest size should be 1000 pixels or less. The deadline for submission is before 6 p.m. on or before Tuesday, Melbourne Australia time. The earlier the better for Leanne. If you should miss the deadline your photograph will be posted the following week. The complete instructions are posted on Leanne’s blog should you have any questions or need help. The first MM of every month will have a theme.

For me, photography has become a way of attempting to make sense of the strange world that I see around me. I don’t ever expect to achieve that understanding, but the fact that I am trying comforts me. – Mikhael Subotzky

It is part of the photographer’s job to see more intensely than most people do.
He must have and keep in him something of the receptiveness of the child who looks
at the world for the first time or of the traveler who enters a strange country. — Bill Brandt

Photography is a “mirror with a memory”. – Oliver Wendell Holmes
Before seeing this quote, I hadn’t realized that Oliver had such a strong interest in photography. He would have probably liked Leanne Cole and Laura Macky’s Monochrome Madness posting later on today. Thanks to them and all of the talented contributors, every week has a diverse and interesting collaboration of monochrome photos for everyone’s viewing pleasure.
