Mundane Monday Challenge #21

Hi there!
Welcome to MMC – a challenge created to find beauty in almost anything, capture it and upload the photograph.
Thanks a lot Mr PhoTrablogger for this challenge – here goes my entry for the week:

image

A solitary bird on a uneventful evening – killing time or contemplating on life?

Now see another side of the capture below; It is full of life and well, many different shades of green πŸ˜‰

image

If we take out all colors from the photograph, look what happens. It becomes dull and mundane.
Same is with life and its highs and lows. We can make our life look either black and white or fill it with bright colors. It all depends on our perspective and state of mind. Next time you face a tough situation, control the way you look at it and save yourself from falling into the negativity trap. I’m sure you’ll come out shining!

So, try to be happy and see the positive side of things to fill your life with colors of joy and gaiety.
Have a great week ahead!🌻🌻

Wait! Don’t go before answering this million dollar question:
Which one of the captures do you like more?
The first or the second…?

PS : I think this this post fits perfectly to Adele’s happiness quest, so why not join and spread some smiles. This one’s for you , the girl in glasses.

          They are visible now. I caught them just before they could be gobbled and brought them back to their place – safe and sound πŸ˜‰

            I now know why they were gobbled.. πŸ˜‰ Might be WP was hungry for a bird and killed two with your post.. πŸ˜› πŸ˜‰

            Now the bird is thinking of how to thank our dear Hargun, the saviour for saving them from such deep troubles.. πŸ˜‰ πŸ™‚ πŸ˜€

    The monochrome is not that mundane after all.. It is still interesting.. But I like the green one better than the black and white.. Colors add cheer and beauty!!

    I am a sucker for b&w but this time I really Love the color, something about the green πŸ˜„.
    You know, the first time I opened this there were no pictures and I was wondering if you wanted us to use imagination to create the image πŸ˜€

      Now that’s called creativity..! I would have thought something similar too. You are like me πŸ˜‰
      I wouldn’t have subjected you to it though. I like to give my readers an easy ride through the post πŸ˜‰

      Also, I’m really glad you liked the capture. I remembered your liking for b&w but I’m glad you loved the coloured one more this time πŸ™‚

    Nice moral you brought out with a simple post. Sometimes, colorless look beautiful and extraordinary too. Perceptions.; I like the colorful one here though πŸ™‚

      Yes, colourless can be absolutely pretty. It all depends on one’s viewpoint, just Like they say, beauty lies in beholder’s eye. πŸ˜‰

      So shall I take it in connection with the picture here or a general statement? πŸ˜‰
      But nonetheless, I’m glad you stopped by and shared your thoughts. I agree with you …Black and white can be amazing.

    I tend to like both black and white, and colorful. Though, here, at first glance, the black and white has a distinct feel to it, making you feel like a spectator; whereas, the colored version with its vibrant greens beckons you to be a part of the situation. It does add life to the picture. πŸ™‚

          Staying positive always helps to live life in the right way ! But this also require consistent efforts and forcefully overlooking the negative aspects.
