RE: A Magnificent Monochrome Monday
Always showing off, Paul.
Sterling Engines, Lava Lamps that tell the temperature, exotic salad dressings that no one else has ever heard of. And now, marbles.
And not just any marbles: Monochromatic Marbles. Alliterative marbles.
It occurred to me that I don't have marbles in any chromatic configuration. Hell, I don't even know how to take a black and white picture of marbles ... assuming that black and white is the same as monochromatic, which I'm not sure that it is.
Is this some sort of, "Let them eat cake" thing?
I do have a mirror. In fact, I have three mirrors, Paul. Of course, you probably have four.
I suppose next Monday, it'll be your Monochromatic Maserati.
OK ... that's all the BS I can come up with about marbles. Your sense of the aesthetic is obviously a lot greater than mine. Great job.
Well if you have a camera, you can do black and whites. You can put and pic into GIMP and hit colors, then desaturate and there you have it. GIMP is free and open source and a wonderful app.

I also host #treetuesday which is in color. Feel free to take part.
@old-guy-photos,
Are you forgetting that I couldn't figure out how to DM on Discord for 2 weeks! Or that it was you that finally made it magically work ... at 3 AM in the morning? Now you want me to desaturate! in GIMP! If you were a betting man ...!
Oh, good news ... it's open source. Well, I'm sure that will make all the difference.
Paul, I consider myself lucky if I can turn on the TV. It is, at best, a 50/50 proposition. Why do I need two remotes with hundreds of buttons between them? On/Off. Channel. Volume.
Desaturate it in GIMP.
You don't know who you're talking to.
