WACKY PEACOCK?

It's Mono Monday and the theme is "wacky."  I'm not sure how wacky this is...but a gorgeous peacock in B&W just doesn't make it for me. I love monochromatic images...I grew up with film and processing my own B&W pictures. But, sometimes, B&W just doesn't fill the bill. Looking at Ansel's landscapes one can only marvel at the effectiveness of B&W but when it comes to birds......only color can do them justice. Check out the Extra for a direct comparison....and you will see that I am right.

Best seen in Large.
