I have to admit, I love black and white photography. Either film or digital coversions, there is just something about the rich tonality and simplicity of a well-executed black and white photo that speaks to me. Not that I’m a “purist” or anything, I just like the aesthetic
However, for some reason I’ve done almost *no* black and white work recently… Why? I have no idea… but almost everything out of my camera for the past 6 months or so has been color (not that there’s anything wrong with that!) So… to “break out of my rut” as it were, I’ve decided to do a month of exclusively black and white shooting. Starting sept 1, I’m setting my default import preferences in Lightroom to apply a b/w conversion on import. I’m not going to change my normal shooting habits, keep on working as I always do only it will all be b/w. It’s always good to shake things up a bit to get the creative juices flowing
Pictures from the project will be posted here in the coming weeks…
Just in time for the fall colors!
Hah… didn’t even think of that
Still- that will definitely give a twist to the idea, and provide a different creative framework to work in…
interesting project..
