Black and White, Hands and Feet

I {heart} black and white photos. I have them all over my house. Color photos let you experience a moment, but black and white let's you experience emotion. You focus more on the subject than on what they're doing. Are they happy? Sad? Focused?

Usually, when I take out my camera, my son runs away laughing like "you can't catch me!" This is the first time I was able to get my boy to do exactly what was asked of him. 

To me, he looks very content and happy.

Maybe it was because I promised him a popsicle. I can't be sure.

Enjoy the photos!

  16. Oh my gosh! I love the fourth one down! It is so Norman Rockwell-ish and perfect in Black & White - okay I love them all. But that one is my favorite. I'm with you - I LOVE black and white photos too! There is something classic and graceful about them.
