  2. Hi dear, this is a lovely collection of B&W photos, somehow emotion shows much more through monotone pics. Loved the one with Sienna Miller

  5. oh wow, I really enjoyed going through every one of those photos! sometimes black & white can be the only right way how to present a photograph. but at the same time there are occasions when I just can't make an image black & white because all the colours are so meaningful and full of life. anyway, truly wonderful selection! oh and Kristen's photo really surprised me! in a good way of course!

    1. I understand what you are saying. You're an artist and sometimes you need the colour!! Makes sense. And of course, your photos are always so beautiful. Yes, I was shocked by the KStu photo as well?! Ha!
