September 30 x 30 Day 5

Decided to go on the whole page, hey why skimp. Also added a bit of color with a reddish conte stick  I like the effect. Another close crop of the wall in the wooded area.

September 30 x 30 Day 4

Oop,s why does this have a bluish overcast. May do a retake of the photo although it is still monochromatic. Did a quick fix on the phone... looks much better although I am leaving the toned image as well. Oh and learned a new how to edit on the phone... don't schedule!!!!

In the Horsha there is a concrete wall that gets some interesting shadows when the sun is setting. This is mainly what drew me to making the shoot there in the first place.  There are lots of dry weeds at the base of the wall.
