Kind of Like A Chopin Nocturne


Unité d’Habitation, Marseille, 1952 by Lucien Hervé.

There's a reason I adore black and white photography. It's in the distributed tones of white and black. There's something about the winding of grays on paper. Black and white photography can be serene and it can be menacing. It is always beautiful. When I think of black and white photos I can hear Chopin playing somewhere in the distance. Even more so if I imagine returning to a dark room and getting my hands dirty. You throw in some stunning architecture and I'm pretty much sure to stare for heaps of time.

If you can't tell I've been listening to classical music and looking for gorgeous black and white photos. Enjoy!
