Color is descriptive. Black and white is interpretive – Elliot Erwitt

 

 

I have never met an image that did not know it was a black and white photograph. From moment of capture it has always had an opinion. I have also heard a lot of horse fertilizer about what makes a black whit image a black and white image.

 

 

Every image you capture you see in color. When we shot film eventohouh the film wa black and white what we saw was color. Soooo… Mr/ Smartypants what;’s the magic equation then you ask?

 

 

When the distraction of color gets in the way of the abstraction of the images gesture. Gesture is the key element of every photograph.

 

 

As to this image- It could be argued that in most parts of Cuba a cigar is the sixth finger of a hand

 

 

WHAT A BLAST this last workshop to Cuba was.

 

 

the Zf is the camera I grab when I have no idea what I am walking into and Nikkor optics are just a visual pleasure to look through wilst I shoot. Nobody does In focus to blur as well as Nikon does.
