Took a peek at your excellent calendar- so many fantastic black and whites there! I love your subject matter this week- so expressive and perfect for the challenge. It really catches my eye that you have selected a black background to feature him too- makes me wish I'd chosen a subject to do that with!
@olivetreeann Ann, the silly thing is that it's actually a white background but Mr Adobe is doing the heavy lifting.
If my B&W pics are pleasing... the credit belongs to you! I did this challenge for the first time in February 2014 just one month after I started my project and the prospect of doing a whole month of B&W petrified me... these days I'm terrified if I have to do too much colour, although I can usually just about manage a couple each month!
@vignouse Well then I am both honored and pleased to have inspired this aspect of your photography! I felt the same way the first month I did entirely in black and white. Although I'm still rather eclectic when it comes to my project, I am seriously trying to improve my "black and white eye" all the time. I get as much out of this month as all of you do! Thanks again Richard!
@olivetreeann 2016 was perhaps my most enjoyable year when I did my OCOLOY project - One Camera One Lens One Year. An entire year with a fixed 35mm (equivalent) lens, all pictures captured in B&W and posted SOOC with no editing whatsoever... I thoroughly recommend it - so much so, I think I'll do another one.
