I understand why most people seem to prefer color: it’s what we see, but I’ll probably always be a sucker for a good black and white image.
I began my photography journey in a university dark room. My path has been far from straight, but it was in that dark room that I fell in love with photography and learned to unsee the color, to focus on form, contrast, and composition.
I embrace color now; I do: it’s also a powerful tool, but I’ve decided that the rest of the week can be as colorful as it wants– Wednesdays are hereby going to be dedicated to black and white. #bnww #yolo
