Project2010: 052 of 375 (February 11th)



I had any number of images to choose from for today, ranging from other finds in the British Museum to the Lloyds Building and nearby skyscrapers. The Rosetta Stone, however, is what had the most-lasting effect so is most-appropriate as a representative for the day itself.

The other images will see the light of day (or, more accurately, monitor screens) in due course.

I had trouble categorising this, and it's likely to bounce around before it settles somewhere. While architecture isn't quite accurate, it is certainly a monument despite being relatively small in scale.

Additionally, this might end up being presented in black & white at some point. Any thoughts?

I'd be curious to see what it looks like in black and white, but to be honest, the rich tones of brown you captured really give this piece a lot of warmth and life... I think it might be lost in monochrome.
