Black & White

One day I was walking through my dining room and happened to notice the cool shadow that my candelabra was casting across the table. I was just starting to "get into" photography and I thought I'd try to get a nice picture of the candelabra and it's shadow. I took the picture in color...the candles are a pastel yellow and it just didn't seem right so I used Elements to change it to black and white and I was shocked at how amazing the picture looked after the change. That was about four years ago and this is still one of my favorites!


I'm joining Tracy at Tracy's Trinkets & Treasures for a black and white photo party.

It is a cool pic. I bet pale yellow didn't do it justice. The black and white looks really good.
