Shades of grey

No, I'm not alluding to that film/book!

This is a pack of coloured pens. Interesting which shades appear similar in B&W. The pens are, from nearest to furthest:

red, orange, yellow, lime green, emerald green, sky blue, royal blue, magenta, brown, black.

(Our internet is very unreliable at the moment so I'm having to connect through my phone. No commenting today, unfortunately, but hopefully I'll be back commenting tomorrow)

PS Thanks so much for getting both of yesterdays pictures trending, and one on the popular page! What a lovely surprise :)

First i thought they were piano keys. Nice colour contrast with the pencils.

[Stephanie]

Yes, I thought they were piano keys as well! It looks very effective though!

[Dione Giorgio]

Amazing how each pen has a different shade of grey. Great idea and shot.

[Miley]

I thought it was a keyboard at first too. I see it now. Strange what black nd white picks out sometimes. I like to whack up the contrast.

Fabulous compositition

At first glance I thought they were piano keys!

[Anna]

nice lines

[Kerri]

Cool shot

[Juan B.]

How interesting shot. It is fascinating to see how near colors are opposite in grey scale. This is important to see a color scenery previous to take a bw shot.

This is really intriguing! Without reading your commentary, at first I thought you had 'played with' piano keys. It's fascinating to see the range of grays in the color pens.

Great shot, Alia. It's amazing how colors look similar in black and white. Congrats on your pic making the PP!!

[Susan C Clow]

Interesting image of the different shades of gray. Nice lines too.

[Tammy]

Fantastic shot - I love the contrasts!

[Natalie]

I like it.

[Pyrrhula]

Great shot of all those shade`s of grey

[Ann H. LeFevre]

It is interesting to see how black and white affects the colors- I had the same experience with my apples. Good shot!
