The theme for Cee’s Black and White Challenge this week is ‘Heads’ or ‘Facial Features’. On a recent trip to The Metropolitan Museuam of Art in New York City, I took these shots: Augustus Caesar and Alexander the Great
Monochrome Monday – Black and White #photography (5)

Those are cool. They almost look more like sketches than photos. 😃

Thanks! Must be the museum lighting. And this is with the ‘silvertone’ filter. Which I think was a good effect for these!

I agree. They turned out great. Lighting in museums can be a little tricky. It’s sometimes so brrightbit can wash things out. These look great though. 😃
