Monochrome Assignment Review 2025

Hello lovely members, it’s your ‘Monochrome’ review, here we look at the best of the assignment entries and tell you who has won this month’s prize!

Literally 100’s of great entries for this assignment. This is because turning things black and white is a fairly easy thing to do. But, making a monochrome image look great is not so easy!! I’ve whittled it down to the very best and in this review, we’ll discuss why they make the cut and reveal the winner which, this month, was a clear one with nearly double the points of second place!

This month, we’ve collaborated with LumeCube and the winner will receive a RGB Panel Pro 2.0!! Remember, to be eligible for the assignment prize, you must have taken the photo during the month of the assignment. To see more details on the prize and the prize rules, click here.

As usual, watch through the video and tell us your thoughts in the comments. 😊
