I just love black and white photographs, from film to the
newer digital edits the values of the shadows is so impressive. 90% of my work
is in black and white because of the way I feel about it.
My mentor Man Ray used to say the devil is in the details
and the details are always in the shadows, color just hides them, so what are
you hiding? That impact has sent my life in a direction, one for the search of
the shadows, the things hidden from view. Personally I think that is best
stated visually in black and white.
Maybe it’s just that I am old now but colors seem to be
blending more now days. What ever did happen to the vivid yellows of '69?
