The Color in Black & White, colors elicit different moods.
 
 
We might associate colors with how we feel. Mostly, the effect of color on our daily lives is subtle. Alternatively, a brilliant red sunset or a dark grey-blue sky can stimulate vivid emotions.
Like color images, shapes, shades, textures, tones, and light are essential in black-and-white or monochrome photographs. When I choose the colors in my pictures, I am predetermining the emotional direction of the image. With a black-and-white print, depending on your reaction emotionally, you paint in your colors.
The photographs below are a selection of images from this exhibit. It was My Picture Tells A Story’s first public showing. Along with 30 other pictures, the first six stories were the Exhibit’s Showcase Images.
