Those photographers do it so well, yes. There definitely is an art to creating the right b&w. Perhaps, it just isn't my niche. I prefer light and color over it almost always. But in the right circumstance still love it.

I agree that not every image lends itself to a good black and white. There needs to be a good amount of contrast, and an appropriate use of light and shadow or you get a muddy dull looking conversion. The best way to create a black and white image is to shoot with that in mind and not just convert later to try to save an image. <br /><br /> I do love the way some black and whites create poignant timeless images. Meg Bitton. Emma Wood, Meg Axxelson, Ansel Adams, they each have a way of creating some of the most beautiful images I have ever seen. <br /><br />Of course, it's a personal preference for sure. I tend to like more dramatic, moody images so that's probably why I gravitate to b/w so much. Photography is such a personal journey. I think that's why I love it so ;)Serendipityissweethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02971375549834680356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1286665597821178200.post-61692840778772772042012-08-14T20:12:50.203-07:002012-08-14T20:12:50.203-07:00I agree!

Besides that....what's up with the "all naturale" nature boy in the bed here? Put some drawers on him! lolDawn Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01602941052298531821noreply@blogger.com
