Every week Paula of Lost in Translation hosts a fun Black & White Sunday challenge and this week she’s welcomed guest host Allan Hamilton to share his expertise on the subject of narrative black and white photography.  Allan’s guest post is full of great tips for creating engaging images that provoke thought without the distraction of color and I encourage everyone who’s interested in black and white photography to spend a few minutes reading both his post and Paula’s response.
Our challenge is to share photos of people that tell a story and while these two pictures are from different days in Seattle they each capture moments of waiting. Â I know what happened before, during and after the photo of Ryan and my niece Ava waiting for lunch but the empty table and chessboard in Westlake Park could have dozens of interpretations. Â I wish I knew who started the game and who eventually sat down to finish it on a hot summer day in the middle of the city.
