Smaills Beach has been a fertile ground for me so I was curious to see if they would look as good in monochrome as they do in colour. Here is the result with number 4 of 4 in the series.

Black and white photography is not someting I do very often but it still has the ability to make a powerful image in the digital age. In fact I would go as far as saying that when a photographer really wants to make a statement he or she will revert to classic black and white techniques. I don't know what it is but b&w always seems to add legitimacy and gravitas to the phtotgraphic image.
