@bbamok I'm really glad you have both been enjoying the challenge. The response to it has far exceeded my expectations when I came up with the idea of #MonochromeMarch, so much so that I have gone from my original idea of producing just one e-zine of 48 pages at the outset to three volumes of 52 pages each, filled with my favourite images from the month!

So I have come to learn that there is something called #MonochromeMarch here on Mastodon and I feel I should post at least one monichrome photograph to partake. I am colorblind and feel more comfortable working with black and white anyway.

So here we have the abandoned farmhouse Arnarnes which is situated in Nort-Western Iceland. This place is very remote so when the middle-aged couple who built it moved there from the city, they had to sign a contract with the electrical company to live there for 20 years in order for them to bother supplying them with electricity. But the husband was lost at sea on his last tour on the postal ship, dooming his widow to 20 years in solitude. The sentence was cut short when she fell ill and was rushed to a hospital in Reykjavík where she passed away. The house bears witness to this sudden abandonment as you'll find spices in the kitchen shelves, newspapers on the nightstand and all the furniture still in place.It has been abandoned since 1967. The widow was an avid sea swimmer and even once got mistaken for a seal once and got shot at by a couple of seal hunters. They fortunately missed.

My favourite part about this picture is how the house kind of echoes the shape of the mountain looming over it.
