Monochrome Monday shots from recent walks

Good morning, I hope you all had a good weekend. Mine was good got out for a couple of photowalks, and did some errands around the house, but otherwise was a nice easy weekend

I am starting the week as is my habit with a few Monochrome shots all from recent walks I have taken

Starting with a morning when I parked at the port took a few shots there and then walked into the historic district, and when I go there I cannot resisty gettign shots of the Belgian block streets, I still think of them as cobblestone streets, but know thats not what they are, either way whatever there called, they can be treacherous to walk on if wet, or must be a nightmare for ladies wearing shoes with thin heels.
in short the difference between them is cobblestones are naturally rounded river or field stones, while Belgian blocks are quarried, cut rectangular stones

And you may think this photo is from the same morning at the port, but it was another day and I was walking around Popes Island and this is one of the docks for commercial fishing boats, its mostly Monochrome, but brought back a touch of the color inthe boat Timberline but very muted

And this next one is taken from up on the Harbor walk here in New Bedford a lovely walkway built on top of the hurricane barrier wall

I do love catching reflections, and this building and the small waterway is always good for reflections

And this is from the walk I took at Haskell Gardens with the local photography/Artists group, knowing these greenhouses are being taken down as they have deteriorated so much and apparently are beyond repair, I thought to get some shots of them before they are torn down,
