And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.” – Albert Camus

Special edition B&W #handsorship. My good friend Simms passed along a B&W photo challenge to shoot a black and white photo everyday for 5 days.

So Simms, challenge accepted!!

When I first started learning photography I only shot black and white for many years and there is still a lot I love about it but my all time favorite thing about black and white is how much it accentuates shape and lines. By departing from the color we see normally black and white also somehow always feels more photographic to me too.
