Mono Photo Gallery by Neil Marcus at pbase.com

Mono

The bulk of my so called serious photography over the course of my life has been black and white photography. Simply because color was not an option when I started and I liked darkroom work. Now with digital I slip into mono when I feel it is more suitable than color.
