Black and White Sunday, a Barcelona Nightscape
Paula asks for a nightscape in black and white and says ‘the absence of colour lets us focus on shapes more’. I agree, clear definition and form seems to work best.
My photo was taken from the Arenas rooftop in Barcelona, which is a circle of restaurants with views over the city.

The Arenas was once the city’s bullring, and is now a smart shopping mall, a much better use, don’t you agree?
Black and white Sunday, repetition
Hooray, Paula is back at Lost in Translation, and this week she invites us to share patterns and repetitions for Black and White Sunday. My thoughts turned to architecture at first, but I’ve seen a very good entry already. So I decided that people can make repetitive patterns as well, and came up with this.
I’d like to thank Andy at Fife Photos and Art, he told me that Nik software is now available free, and that’s what I used to edit this image.
Black and White Someday, from above
Sorry Paula, I’m last as usual. You’ll be pleased to know I don’t get vertigo and heights don’t bother me.
Paula is way higher than me, in Lisbon, with view I’d like to see. But I’m rather fond of Exeter Quay and you might like it too.

hite Sunday, DelicatePaula at Lost in Translation has picked the theme of delicate for her Black and White Sunday challenge. Read what she says about the possible photographic interpretations of the word here.
My photo was taken at the tomb of King Midas, Gordion in the heart of Turkey.
It’s possible that this pot is Phrygian, from the 9th century BC.
