forddeliveryboy Posted June 2, 2014 Author Posted June 2, 2014 Compared with this... ...modern Monaco really is a bling-infested shithole that tasteful architecture forgot. Exactly. We forget how much our increased rate of development has, in part, ruined our towns and cities. One of the reasons I love b&w photography is that so often it shows our world on the brink of the oil age, where plastic hasn't yet been invented, larger buildings are planned and built with care since there is a lot more effort goes into erecting them and consumption and house prices isn't the tool used for economic progress. Can anyone join in? Of course - it would be good if we stuck to authentic black and white images, should we start a black and white film thread too? If the photos are your own then so much the better. If any pics start a debate then so much the better - a pic may be as good as 1000 words but a few words can make a picture really live.

DSdriver Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Most of my photography was in black and white because we had our own darkrooms at work for dev and print. I had two Olympus cameras in a aluminium case, one with b&w film and the other with colour. The rest of the box was filled up with lenses and filters. Colour camera was mainly used for family pics - or 'im'n'ers as they were called - thats 'im, thats 'er.

anonymous user Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Some stunning photographs on here, the world looks much nicer in black and white. Unfortunately all I can find to hand is this, not in the same league at all forddeliveryboy and Junkman 2
