Monochrome and black and white are often confused, but although black and white is monochrome (one color), monochrome might be a photo with a range of color that’s not black. Grayscale is a monotone image made of only shades of grey/gray. Hence all grayscale images are monotone but not all monotone images are grayscale…or black and white. This is just like whisky, where all Scotch is whisky but not all whisky is Scotch…at least until you’ve had plenty of one or the other. 🙂 Happy Friday!
Naturally black and white, monotone, and grayscale

Love the image, Janet.
Thanks, Jo. I hope you have a lovely weekend.
That’s a bit philosophical for morning!
Ha! I hope you recovered.
😄😄
I like that. I just remembered I have one of my bathroom faucet like that. I throw it up.
I saw it and liked it as well. Thanks for linking. Glad you threw it up and didn’t throw up. 🙂
[…] has a similar black and white and some thoughts about how black and whites can sometimes seem the same using a great analogy […]
Happy Friday, Janet. Love the pic! … and now I’m ready for a drink. Have a good weekend.
🙂 You have a good weekend as well, Frank.
Great job on the explanation and the photo! I don’t like Scotch enough for even one drink, but make the comparison between bourbon and whiskey and then it might work for me 😉
Easy peasy. All bourbon is whiskey but not all whiskey is bourbon. 😁❤️
Great image! Pondering such deep thoughts to go with my morning coffee …😵💫🙄🥱
I hope your thoughts and coffee were both excellent. 🙂
Excellent enough 😊
I am a wiser woman for having read this. I didn’t know the differences. Interesting photo
🙂 Venn diagram stuff, Ally.
This is a super cool shot. 😀 😀
Thanks, Cee. If you look down, you never know what you might see. 🙂

Thanks, Donnalee. Those lines just caught my attention. I’m glad you enjoyed them, too.
