Monochromatic Images

Monochromatic is the correct description for what most people refer to as black and white photography. They are not just black and white images for there is a whole range of grays that falls between pure black and pure white. But it must also be kept in mind that a monochromatic image is not limited to grayscale - it can be any color.

Most of my work is grayscale monochromatic. In a sense it is an abstract art. We see in color and most media that we see today is in color. For me I often feel that the colors can distract from what I am trying to capture in my images. Though it's one's own personal tastes I feel that grayscale monochromatic images add drama and impact to a picture by stripping away the color that we are attuned to seeing in the subject.
