Photo Challenge 2012 -February Installment

Here's my second installment of the 2012 Photography Project.  

The theme for February was "Black and White Photography".  When I originally took the first three photos earlier this month, I knew they were the ones I wanted to use for the project.  They were practically black and white before I even converted them.  Often I prefer colour photography, but I think in this case, the contrast of the black and white helps to capture the moment.  A quiet winter morning.  

This last photo I just couldn't resist.
