Black and white




A story behind: Black and white photography doesn’t attract with its play of colors. Here close attention to composition, lighting, perspective and the context are important. I am not a very black-and-white photography maker. I cherish beautiful B&Ws that belong to the upper league of THE BIG photography.
This is my first one.
My new resolution: do better B&W photos.

  3. I always like to see the lightning and thunderstorm it is much frightening and scary at night but looks simply amazing. The night photography is always much charming and wonderful.
