Description

Photography was born black and white, and some photographers choose to continue this tradition, while working on evolving the visual aesthetics of this raw art form. From an artistic viewpoint; color depicts reality. Black and white is an interpretation of reality. Try and describe the feelings black and white photography evokes and you’ll come up with words like classic, bold, raw, and natural. Whether it’s capturing the texture of an object or seeing the form, shading, pattern or tone, black and white photography will give you a greater appreciation for life’s little details.  Black and white photography is an interpretation of the world around us in differences of light values.  Black and white is one way of moving away from reality to infuse your work with aesthetics, and obtain a work that can be considered art.
