There was a time when I was so into black and white photography. There’s something so bittersweet and romantic about it, which suited my angsty teenage self just fine. It had nothing to do with how I felt so badass shooting in black and white with a film camera or the fact that my terrible pictures could pass off as artistic without color. Nothing like that at all.
Then I met color which was all happy and vibrant and made everything pop, which was great for taking photos of the kids and I’ve been shooting in color ever since.
But this batch of photos I took seemed just perfect for black and white, so I did a bit of Lightroom-ing and I think I’m in love with black and white all over again.

I heart B&W photograhy too. It has this peace and quiet.
Or when finding some pictures looking too noisy, I’ll always convert them to B&W and always they’ll turn out nice =)
rachel´s last post ..I’m NOT TIRED
Same… I love B&W! Like Rachel, I change it to B/W especially if the lighting makes everyone look awful…
Lovely shots you have there! Especially shot number 2. :)
Agree … when you take away all the colors and use only the shades of grays, you see the soul in the photo. :)
Beautiful photos, Daphne.
