It’s our fifth and final day of the 5-day monochrome photo challenge. We started our theme, ‘People around the World’, from the far east (India) and will end it today in the west(America). A big thank you to L, from seeingthrough35mm, for inviting us to participate in this challenge.  Here are some snippets of Basil’s solo trip to New York in 2012.

Party in Central Park – New York, America.

 “By all means, marry.

If you get a good wife, you’ll become happy;

if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.”

– Socrates

On guard at the WTC memorial – New York, America.

 “Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”

(Who will guard the guards themselves?)

– Decimus Iunius Iuvenalis

As with most challenges – we’ve got to pass it on! We’d like to invite Daniel from joshidaniel to participate in this challenge. Daniel’s photography, especially portraits, is pretty exceptional. I’m not sure if he will participate, but am pretty glad to have an opportunity to share his link to all those who enjoy excellent photography!

What are the Rules?

1. On 5 consecutive days, create a post using a recent or past photo in black and white.

2. Each day, invite another fellow blogger to join you in your photo-journey.

All the best!
