New Years 2015 I had received a few B&W photographic challenges on Facebook from friends and family. Prior to accepting this challenge I was feeling creatively blind. I posted the first image on January 5th and by the time I posted the 5th image my sister and wife were pushing me to do more. 30. 50. Why not 365?
I think like many photographers I started shooting in B&W and developing in a darkroom. Over the years I moved away from B&W, although it has been a style that I have always enjoyed. This challenge forced me to move beyond the places where I struggled. And all I did was shoot + shoot + shoot some more. The results have left me happy and proud.
