Descending Kemsing Down

James Ravilious once lamented that England's problem was it was too green, what to do with all that green. His answer was black and white; and he is firmly one of my favourite photographers. My kind of photographer too.

 

I don't often see the problem with green, it's a balancing act though; and I think black and white photography has made me a better colour photographer. You subconsciously analyse the scene in a very different way, luminescence, shadows, light -- you become detached from the actual colour of the scene as it were.
