yep always looks better in black and white. great work -- and yes we do need more b&w threads for sure, especially of the more popular cities we see on ssp.
I think of of it that way along with Miles Davis or Bill Evans for a soundtrack n my head.

Really good. Thank you. I love the black and white. It's funny, you wallow in the city day after day, and it can feel so horribly repetitive and uncool. Then you see it through a black and white lens, and it becomes a wonderland again.

Thank you. That's one of the things I enjoy about photography is looking at the everyday world and seeing it from a new or fresh perspective.

Hahaha yeah you got the Manhattan reference! Music and photography go hand in hand, at least for me.
