I was tagged a few days ago to participate in the black and white photo challenge by Grace, the creator of MS Graceful…NOT If you aren’t familiar with Grace, go and check out her blog, and meet a woman who is strong as hell, funny, kind, talented and can swear with the best of them. I am honored that she is my friend!
You know there are always rules to everything in life! The rules for this are straightforward. Seven days. Seven black and white photos of your life. No people. No explanation. Challenge someone new each day (Participate if you feel compelled to do so).

Loved all the pics Susan

Thanks, Steve! I Loved yours too! I am still going back to look at the swimming pool pic, with much envy, as I swelter here in L.A.
July 18, 2018 at 8:25 am
Been doing a lot of that here in Southern New England too

What I love about this picture is that it could have been taken even here — the marble stairs, the rails and the door could have been part of a Greek house. The weather here is still hot (obviously) and this entrance seems cool. I can imagine myself returning home and sitting for a while in those steps, enjoying the difference in temperature.

Thank you! You are so wonderful!!!! This is exactly why I posted this one last, the sort of stark and universal quality, in contrast to the other pictures which are so distinctly Hollywood. It also felt like bringing the journey from my neighborhood to my door, but not inside.

Good idea!
It’s such a pity you reached day seven. I’m going to miss seeing your photos.
July 18, 2018 at 8:25 am
You are so lovely! This has been a wonderful experience, and made even better by you!!! I just saw your picture for today and it is perfect!
July 18, 2018 at 10:13 am
I am happy I helped make this experience better! You are doing the same for me, Susan!

It’s a visual journey!!!!!
July 18, 2018 at 12:50 pm
I Love that we unconsciously walked a similar path, so to speak!!!!
July 18, 2018 at 12:53 pm
Me too! I’ve never done this before with photography and it’s so revealing!
July 18, 2018 at 12:54 pm
Me too, exactly!!!! It has turned into so much more than I had imagined.
July 18, 2018 at 1:29 pm
Of course I will. I am excite that you have 4 days left! we should definitely find a way to continue. I have already had some ideas.
July 18, 2018 at 1:30 pm
I’d love to hear them!
And thank you!
July 18, 2018 at 1:33 pm
Of course. You may want to check and make sure; I am not great with the tech side of things, but I think I did it right!
July 18, 2018 at 1:43 pm
You did! I can’t see it. Thank you again and sorry for the trouble.
July 18, 2018 at 2:07 pm
No trouble at all!

July 18, 2018 at 8:31 am
Is that it? Is that home to Pug Nation?
July 18, 2018 at 8:38 am
This makes me smile, Wulf!!! Yes, this is me bringing you to my door. The pugs were barking like crazy behind it. I thought it was a good way to end the challenge.
July 18, 2018 at 8:47 am
It was the best way!!!
July 18, 2018 at 6:20 pm
My favorite!
July 19, 2018 at 5:51 am
Thank you, Rita!!!!!
July 19, 2018 at 5:51 am
My pleasure. I love B&W photography.
July 19, 2018 at 5:54 am
Me too; I think they offer a texture that can be so overlooked with color photos. I am glad you liked this last one. It felt like a good place to end. xoxoxoxo
July 19, 2018 at 5:56 am
I absolutely agree. There’s a truth in them I like. It really is my favorite of the week.
July 19, 2018 at 6:37 am
You are so lovely!!!!! You so often come into a dark morning and make it brighter and better.
July 19, 2018 at 6:39 am
Oh honey I hope so.
July 19, 2018 at 10:50 am
I hope photo was taken in the spanish palace you own! So gorgeous!
