Untitled B&W Urban Study - a photo on Flickriver

            For someone who utilizes color as a substantial part of their composition, shooting black & white is the equivalent of trying to learn to play a classical acoustic once you’ve already spent your teens banging away some heavily-distorted metal.

At some point, if you desire to be a well-rounded musician, you need to learn how to turn the volume down.

And so begins my severely neglected education into monochrome; as favorable as I am to framing my subject in thick shadows, you’d think I’d be more adept to the style… I’m not.
