Do We Do the Obligatory Monochrome Mondays?

Seems like many, if not most, of the sites where there is photo sharing, do the obligatory Monochrome Mondays.

Personally I am always a fan of monochrome shots regardless of the day of the week. (Even if the subject matter is a bit questionable ;)

Monday just served as a handy excuse to share a few middling shots.
This pencil holder being a perfect example lol.

Here a shot from the balcony when the lake was frozen. That spot reminds me of the eye on Jupiter.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
