"Black and White is abstract; colour is not. Looking at a black and white photograph, you are already looking at a strange world." Joel Sternfeld
I recently found a little blog; Captured in the Lens by Stephanie. She has just started her own Monochrome Series which I loved the concept of so I have decided to give it a go myself.
I took a walk through the park (and got lost!) this week, and although I only had my iPhone with me I decided to get a few snaps to start off my series.
These photos are all pretty simple, nothing amazing and just edited with the amazing iPhone app, Afterlight but obviously not as good quality as it would have been with my camera!
I was also amazed about the fact that there was daisies out - it's November!
Definitely a mild autumn.
What was nice about using my iPhone was not lugging round my massive camera, was much easier with a lighter phone than a big heavy canon hanging round my neck!
How do you feel about the monochrome series?
Anyone wanting to join!?

These are really lovely photos, sometimes I think monochrome is so much more classy x

What a great idea for a series, I prefer looking at photos in b&w sometimes. Love the photo of the ducks!

Thank you Alice!
DeleteThey were actually going mental because someone was feeding them - I didn't think I'd get a good one!

It really has, it's pretty amazing. I did have an iPhone 5c but I broke it, this was taken on an iPhone 4. The difference between 4 and 5c is amazing, it will only continue to get better!
DeleteHowever, I still won't ever believe that a photographer can work entirely with smartphones as some people like to think!
