The Swiss Barbershop and Alien Abductions ~ Two Photos for #Monomad
I've been playing with monochrome again today, what a blast!
Here are a couple of new photos taken today specifically for the daily #monomad photo contest, sponsored by @brumest & @monochromes. Both photos were taken with an Olympus EM-5 Mk ii and a Nikon 24mm lens on an adapter and using manual focus.
The Swiss Barbershop
I never noticed the flags before today. I had my camera set to display monochrome in the viewfinder, but seeing this I imagined a coloursplash image... black, white, and red!

Alien Abduction???
MISSING!!! When I saw this pole with the painted human outlines and the missing poster I somehow imagined an alien abduction movie with bodies being levitated into a flying saucer... Not to worry though. The poster is actually about a missing black cat, nothing to do with missing people or flying saucers.

The above photos are for the daily #monomad photo contest, sponsored by @brumest & @monochromes. Thanks very much for taking a look!
The new camera that I can't shut up about!

Thank you @pixresteemer!
It does look like an alien abduction! Love that shot and the colour splash on the first photo.
Nice you can use the Nikon lens on the Olympus.
Thank you :) Was there a movie poster that showed people like that... floating up on a beam into a saucer, or something of the sort? Yes, it's cool to be able to use my nikon primes lenses, but I have to focus manually and there are a lot of shots where I miss. I'll be around for a visit soon - I've blown my voting power straight into next week, so I need to let my poor tired little account recover...
