dreaming in Black & White

~Hello Everyone!
The sun has been playing hide & seek here in Paris...
Sometimes when in doubt, always opt for the 'B&W'~ I'd say!
Always feel black and white photography can add a certain mood; air of mystery, romance, timelessness to otherwise ordinary photos. Interesting that the same images can entirely look so different when seen in black and white. For this reason, many professional photographers still embrace its timeless quality. Errr...I'm not really a professional photographer of course, but I'm gladly 'playing' one in this blog!! LOL* 
Plus, B&W can look more Très Chic non?

~XOXO*
& greetings via Paris!

So jealous! I'd take foggy and dreary and even rainy any day if it meant being in Paris! And what a magical time of year to be there. I'm sure you're having an amazing time!

Gorgeous pics! That 3rd picture doesn't look like current days at all. Maybe it's the b&w but it looks like the 50s...

Dee Paulino said...

I love love love the 3rd picture. It's not so much the B&W on this one, it's like she stopped time. I hope you have a great time in Paris.

Man- as soon as I get to Europe, all I use is black and white. With cities that have such history, I think black and white makes it even more beautiful, don't you?

Happy travels, Lenore!
