The weather’s been a bit gray to say the least this weekend. The constant downpour of rain has kept me well and truly away from the garden and mostly indoors these last few days.
However, it’s not all bad. This nasty turn in the weather has given me thought to the varying shades of gray between white and black that are all around us and has given me the opportunity to look at my photographs in black and white form.
Which one works best in b&w do you think? I am tending to favour towards the landscape pieces because they represent the shapes and outlines so well against the sky.
And if anyone can advise me whether you’re supposed to shoot in b&w or shoot in color and edit to b&w I’d be grateful. I can’t so far seem to find a solid answer. My theory is that with an old camera you had to buy black and white film so that’s what you’d shoot in rather than edit afterwards but of course digital photography might change all the rules – I’m just not sure.
