The theme for Sonel’s final black and white challenge was windows and doors. I have really enjoyed taking time to look at my photos in a new way every week and even though Sonel will no longer be accepting submissions to her weekly group I want to continue posting a few of my own black and white images every Tuesday.
These two photos are of the Glacier Public Service Center and Ranger Station in the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. We stopped here on our way to visit Mt. Baker and Artist’s Point last weekend to purchase a car pass and pick up some field guides before driving up to the highest point of public access on the mountain. I couldn’t resist walking around the stone building looking for old doors and interesting angles while everyone else was inside listening to the Park Rangers…
Good find!

Great pics, and good idea to keep on doing the photos, I was thinking along the same lines. Only thing is, I quite like having a theme. It leads me in directions I probably wouldn’t have thought of and stretches my imagination a bit. x

I agree Amanda, the themes definitely pushed me to be more creative and look for things that might not have caught my eye before. I hope you continue to post some black and white photos too. 🙂

What a great old building with the mortar lines showing that all the stones are different. I think for this Ranger Station the black and white photo is a perfect choice.

Thanks Andra, I like that curvy touch too. The moss is such a pretty green I almost didn’t want to try it in black and white…maybe I’ll post a color version of this one later.

Thanks Sonel, I’m so happy to hear you like these! The main entrance wasn’t half as interesting as these two side doors. 🙂
