This week, it’s black and white, and we’ve just been given a very vague theme: steadfast.

One of the sentences in the blurb is “No matter what genre of photography you prefer, you should be able to find something to represent the concept of steadfast, just it shoot in a black and white.” Well, at the moment, I pretty much only shoot football, and this week the Diamonds played on Saturday, so I have two girls games to go to (which is irrelevant). So today at the Diamonds game (they won 4-1 away to Stop Out) I had half an eye out for getting something that I could use for this challenge. I saw these Diamonds lining up a defensive wall, and took it. They are dutifully firm and unwavering, so it fits the challenge. I then made it black and white in Lightroom and that was it. (I shoot JPG at football games, so there’s not much editing to be done anyway. Except cropping. I always crop.)
