it's all black and white



Sometimes...



when we're not distracted by color...



we see beauty...



that we would not have seen otherwise.

Oh, and I've been meaning to thank my darling Style Porn for this beautiful award!




Here's who I'd like to pass it on to:
Morena , because she's such a sweetheart.
Allie , because we just get each other.
Brooke , because we go way back.

You're welcome, dear! And thanks for sharing these stunning B&W photos. I'll never get tired of the way the planes of the face are highlighted by black and white film. It's totally unforgiving but totally honest.
