I am not good at black and white images. It might be because it is colour that first attracted me to photography in the first place - I think and see in colour and not in terms of tone and shade. Of course I can fully appreciate those that have more success.
I was interested, therefore, in Still Life With... 's latest flickr theme. Some of the images so far submitted to the group are stunning. I love the reflections on Sam's picture of a knife and cheese and the pears by stieglitz. (Any thoughts on my efforts?)
Still Life With... is all about food photography. Everyday we see glorious images of food in full colour. Do they work in black and white as well?
1. i really thought andrews food in black and white was remarkable. you not only captured the textures , and the subtle shadowing, but when i saw it i instantly felt it's earthy substance. loved it !
