It's Friday! There was no prompt last week because I sort of went into lurk mode - it's a bad habit that I need to work on.

This week's prompt is black and white.

Whether it's a two-tone cat or something quite mundane made dramatic with filters, I want to see how the lack of colour can be a focus of your shot.

Usual rules apply: No NSFW and no shots you didn't take yourself.

Modern monitors do black (pixel off), and white (all three colours at once), as well as grayscale (method varies depending on display type). All of this means that images are displayed in the colors they contain. Or in this case, don't contain.

Grayscale will display differently to black and white or sepia or full colour.
