Super stoked for the first win! Here's my entry for this week:

By monochrome do you just mean Black & White?
Or does this fit in with the theme? Monochrome means "one colour"?
*removed pic*
If it doesn't I have another pic ready that is in B&W.
👍
Edit: see later post for entry.

Hey Aldo, I'm pretty sure what you've done is Selective Colour rather than monochrome, I could be wrong but I'd go with the B&W image you've got just to be on the safe side. 👍

Of course, Chris could come in and tell me I'm completely wrong. As per usual. :P
 
Ok, I'll keep it up for a wee bit longer in case someone tells me it's fine.
Just keep me right, I'm new to this whole photography/editing stuff!
:)

Ach I'll just put up the B&W one. Looks better anyway :P

I just wanted to let you know that that I don't believe your image falls under the theme's guidelines. As Monochrome is "For an image, the term monochrome is usually taken to mean the same as black-and-white or, more likely, grayscale, but may also be used to refer to other combinations containing only tones of a single color, such as green-and-white or green-and-black. It may also refer to sepia displaying tones from light tan to dark brown or cyanotype."
