What is there about a monochrome image that is appealing -- why do people like them? In my opinion, the absence of color pulls our mind's eye right to the expression, gesture, emotion, contrast and composition. The subject's expression and relationships many times take center stage -- there is not much to distract the viewer. But not every image was meant to be a black and white in my opinion, and if the image is enhanced by its color, it will not be as successful. I am always happy to talk to you about creating the BEST monochromes from your work with me.
