Indeed it is.

The challenge warning is the pre-cursor for next Monday - in case we dare to forget.

 

Severe penalties can be bought to bear for forgetting.

It's Monday somewhere, and when Dawn hits tomorrow- I'm going to be working.

Don't want to miss out.

 

 

 

This last one is "Off-Topic", but all those cars were parked near it...

 

Zeiss 50mm F1.5 C-Sonnar, Orange filter, Leica M Monochrom.

All very nice.  Thanks for posting!

I am NOT risking "Severe Penalties"...

These two are with a 7Artisans 50mm F1.1 and yellow filter, on the M Monochrom.

This lens is a modern Sonnar formula lens based on the Zunow 5cm F1.1 v2 of the middle 1950s.

Nikon's fastest lens up until Z-Mount was a 5cm F1.1, but a much different optical formula.

This week, I will start with the recipe as I made it a preset for the session...

 

The strange Color Filter Hue settings are because I put the hue in numerically instead of using the slider.

Camera was the Z6II and lens was my Z 50/1.8S

 

My subject was Rune stones. These were relocated to the university grounds some time in the 19th century. They are all dated to early 11th century.

Apropos of the car theme, here's a transportation related image.

 

Rocky Creek Bridge, also known as Ben Jones Bridge, south of Depoe Bay in Lincoln County, Oregon. Built in 1927, the bridge originally carried U.S. Route 101 (the Oregon Coast Highway) over the creek. After a stretch of the highway was relocated to make it straighter, the abandoned piece of the old highway became a bypass west of the new highway. Designed by Conde McCullough, the arch bridge is 360 feet long.

The bridge is named after Ben Jones, who is known as the father of the Roosevelt Military Coast Highway (US 101). Jones was a lawyer who helped establish Lincoln County in 1893, and who served as mayor of the Oregon cities of Toledo and Newport. In the early twentieth century much of the Oregon coast was inaccessible, and Jones, a state representative drafted legislation that supported the building of US 101. He was inspired by his earlier work in the area as a mail man, having to travel along primitive roads, to work towards getting a full highway built along the Oregon coast shoreline.

The bridge was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.

A monochrome rendering of a bridge that's nearly 100 years old seems appropriate.

Here's a few quirky photos from our 2016 visit to "Rolling Sculpture" exhibit or Art Deco cars of the 1930-40s. These includes people admiring or breezing by these beautiful machines.

I have so many photos I never edited 'til now for this weeks car theme. There were so many cool and unusual automobiles at the exhibit I'll share sometime.

 

B/W doesn't necessarily look better...just different. Shot with my Fuji X100T compact camera (w/ 35mm full frame equivalent fixed lens) I had at the time.
