....."It's all about the lighting"..thats what it said in my favorite photography book, it also recommended shooting in black and white. so thats what i tried

and with great success, I might add. fabulous for the challenge this week. love the variety and the b&w really does work. I think sometime removing the color let's you focus on the other details of the shot. what is your favorite photography book? beth0110 · 2012-02-17: 15:50

I don't think I'd be able to achieve such a good result in B&W well done. MoMac · 2012-02-18: 09:25

they're all fantastic. B&W often brings out textures and details we would otherwise miss McMommy · 2012-02-18: 21:35
