Black and White Zebras

Black and white zebras at the Philadelphia Zoo – this is my first time participating in The Weekend in Black and White.

Ohhhh...how cute is that?!

Great B&W!
They are truly beautiful

OOOOOOO The zebras certainly lend to a dramatic monochrome! Great shot!

Great shot of the zebras. They are a perfect subject for black and white.

Welcome! Zebras are perfect for black and white photos. Their patterns are really beautiful.

Oh, lovely photo. Love the swishing tail!

I agree with Carver. Great choice of subjects for the monochrome photo! Amazing.

What a great first time!
Did you select the "black and white" setting on your camera or did you tweak the photo afterwards?

I desaturated the photo. There wasn't much color in the original - just some browns.

Seeing zebras always makes me wonder if they are white with black stripes or black with white stripes.

Nevertheless, a beautiful photo.

Hi Leora,

The artist who designed the picture that I used on my blog post is Karla Gudeon.

I love her artwork. Have you heard of Laura Bolter? She is also a great artist.
