Black and White, Part One

"Black and white are the colors of photography. To me they symbolize the alternatives of hope and despair to which is forever subjected" ~ Robert Frank
The statement above is true. So very, very true! For me personally, black and white are the colors of photography. They really do symbolize the alternatives of hope and despair to which is forever subjected. 

There is just something about black and white photographs that I absolutely love. They have such extraordinary beauty and an unexplainable power that's truly amazing. I love it! I'm so passionate about this subject. :) I definitely think that black and white is my signature as a photographer. I do it often, probably to often. But I feel that is it my greatest strength and I'm really proud of that. 

I'm starting a new project. I can't tell you it's name, mainly because it doesn't have one yet. :( I'm just making a collection of black and white photographs. This is part one. I will add to this collection slowly. I will be blogging them as I go through it though. I am really looking forward to seeing the my collection grow. 
Enjoy.
