Malawian Black and White Dozen

All these shots are from my trip to Malawi.  The birds are Cormorant, Yellow Weaver, Little Bee Eater and Pied Kingfisher. No more words are necessary.  If you could only pick ONE shot you liked, which one would it be?













I hope you liked these Black and White shots.  So which ONE did you pick.  I do hope you could find one you liked!


Thanks for your visit and to those who leave a comment with their ONE choice.

  2. Rules are not something I do well, but I will try.
    I liked a lot of these photos - but in black and white it is the cormorant fanning its wings which has my heart.

  3. I like the spider the best, but it was a toss up between the spider, and the "boys" on the rocks.

  18. Hi Margaret,
    I find this black / white series very beautiful. The birds come in nice and especially the last bird I find beautiful to see. The other pictures of the roots of the tree, animals and people get very nice about it. Beautifully done and I enjoyed it.
    Kind regards, Helma

  23. I really like them all equally well, Margaret, but I think if I have to choose a favorite it would be the kids with the hammock.

  24. I could not pick just ONE! So I chose the second picture of the cormorant, the weaver and his house, and the tree with the exposed roots!

  25. It's hard to pick one favorite! I am partial to dangling fronds and beach scenes as in the first photo, but the hammock shot it nice, too.
