Black & White

I am a digital hoarder. If I see an image that sparks interest, inspiration or a new idea, I will save it. Four years and 25GB later, I have a nice little collection of images ranging from art, fashion, politics, nature and everything in between.  Great for days when I can’t think of anything to blog about, such as today.

Perusing my never ending and painfully unorganized stash for ideas, what stood out today was all of the black and white photography.

Photography is something Marlon and I have in common and is something we discuss often. However what personally attracts us to the medium is very different. Marlon appreciates style,  intimate composition, and personal expression (correct me if I’m wrong, bud) whereas I love photography that captures real moments with a more raw approach. Below is a selection of black and white photographs that reflect my tastes, and maybe one day Marlon will respond with his own point of view : )
