Seeing the World in Black and White
A juried online photography exhibition
November 13, 2017 – January 5, 2018
This is an Online Exhibition Only
Black and White images are making a comeback, as mono images adapt to all lighting situations, and even though we don’t see the world in black and white it is a creative choice. You can produce formal black and white portraits, landscapes and still lifes that speak for themselves concentrating on capturing clean whites and clean blacks in each image. All subjects are accepted into this extraordinary online exhibition.
This is an open call juried online exhibition, for black and white photography.
