Project Black: Take 1

in Photography, Project Black

Anna is hosting another color project. I LOVE color projects.

I had a hard time with Project Blue, but I did have fun.

As is “tradition” with me I’m using a previously-used photo first. I’ll be on the lookout for “new black” (brown? kidding!) over the next several days.

Wonderful photo! I love photos with shadows too. Fun project black shot.

Raven’s last blog post..Poem of the Week: Sixty One!!!!!!

Thanks, Raven. I didn’t take the photo with Project Black in mind (it didn’t exist when I took it), but I did take it with the intent to crop it this way. I’m glad it worked out. :)

I’m a nut for shadows lol

this is a great shot

made me think of a sailor skating through a parade

Thanks, Dianne. I love shadows, too. :)

4 Lynn 07.10.08 at 8:34 pm

I love this one, the black and white, the shadow and that you captured just the legs and feet.

Lynn’s last blog post..Project Black, Take 1

I appreciate that, Lynn. :)

I like the stillness of this shot and yet I know it must be moving judging from the pants movements

lissa’s last blog post..styrofoam

Lissa, it is an interesting combination of stillness and movement. I hadn’t thought of it that way before. Thanks! :)

6 JC 07.10.08 at 9:01 pm

Excellent shot… everything… the shadow, the movement, even the lines in the pants and the road… just terrific! I would probably crop out the cup on top and it would be absolutely perfect.

JC’s last blog post..Project Black: to the dark side…

ACK! I’d meant to go back and crop out the cup. Darn it all! (And thank you for reminding me. So, now I must decide if I should do it now or wait. Hmmm…)

Thanks so much for the compliments. :) I love this one, too.

Edited at 9:41 p.m.: JC, I couldn’t stand it and recropped the photo. :)

7 Beverly 07.10.08 at 9:03 pm

I love your photo of black. Mine is from my archives as well…out tomorrow looking for “new” black.

I guess you went back and cropped out the cup, cause I only see perfect!

June, I did crop out the cup. It was VERY small at the top. I’d meant to crop it out to begin with, but then I couldn’t stand it. :)

18 Klaus 07.11.08 at 10:53 am

That’s a good take on Black! Looking forward to more!
Cheers, Klaus
