For many people, Monochrome is the true spirit of photography. I have always believed that a successful monochrome image would beat a successful colour image, because sometimes when people view a colour image, the colour alone can have a certain "Wow" value. As the monochrome photographer doesn't have this advantage, theyhave to work harder to compete against the colour images and therefore the subtle use of light, shade and tone can produce an image of greater impact. Anyway that's my theory. I hope you enjoy these. Click any image for a larger version |
