Mono Monday the historic district New Bedford
Good Morning, another week begins and may it be a good one for you all
As I tend to do I am starting the week with a few mono images, you may think they are B&W but I edit some with shades other than black such as the first one with more sepia tones and hence call them mono
I am for this post focusing on a recent walk I took around the historic district here in New Bedford
I love the Belgian block/Cobblestone streets in this area and in the early morning with no people and very little traffic its a cool place to get shots

How is the weather there, here the last for days the morning temps have bene below freezing point, and i haven't been feeling 100% so I have bene sensible and not going out for early morning walks the last few days, I am debating with myself if I will get back into morning walks soon, or change up my schedule and head out for sunset walks now and again since its a bit warmer at around 4:30 when the sun sets at the moment
Next up I have a shot of the Seamens Bethel church and the Mariners home
If you read Moby Dick and the reference to a church some say it was this church it was based on

One of the narrow paved streets, I went there the other day thinking it would be a cool spot for light painting completely forgetting about the street lights which ruled out that option
