Leaving Beauty (Black and White)
Currently my parents are in the process of moving up North to Pennsylvania. The house that they currently occupy, I consider my childhood home of 20 years. It's a nice house and I do admit it will be awkward to see that someone else is abiding within, but alas, one cannot avoid change.So, this past week I did some photoshoots around the house attempting to preserve memory. I took pictures of the garage my father built and made it black and white. The filter I used was the skylight filter which is a Light Pink. The effects are really meant to be used with b&w film, but it also reduces blue and gives the colored picture a soft warm glow. What I like in the above filter is the depth that the black & white gradient gives to my parents' garage. While discussing the photo to the right, I like how it makes this building seem
much older than it is. Granted, yes, it is 20 years old, it still is not considered to be "old" by any means. I must admit, that out of the whole photo I like the clouds the best. The skylight filter gives the clouds a soft hue and I love how the sunlight plays in the clouds even in black and white.
