No longer the Only One

I'm finding myself gravitating towards black and white photography at the moment. I think it is because I am becoming increasingly interested in contrast and shadow. I like the way that using the appropriate color filter (in this case, using Adobe Lightroom) you can highlight or shade components of your photograph according to their color. It give you a lot of control over the balance of your shot. I like this.

Other examples here and here.

Extraordinary photo. Really like how the brightness of the light fades on the columns of the railing from left to right. Sets the tone of the whole photo.
