Lift and Seperate

 I just taught a one on one workshop at La Morada de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe.  Out of the workshop comes a very different take on the morada than what you saw a couple of weeks ago. The lock, weathered woodwork and adobe speak of the passage of time and probably say southwest but don’t identify the Morada as the subject. 

While I favor black and white, this image is more effective in color since there are so many similar values.  In other words, it needs color to create separation between the elements in the composition and to give depth to the picture.  In color the metal components fairly jump out from the wood. In the black and white's gray midtones not so much.  The operative word would be "flat."  Of course, that’s just my opinion.  What’s yours?

Your comment about color and the many values represented that make the photograph "pop" is so very true. Although black and white can be exceedingly rich, in this case, the color is more effective.

Loved last week's peeled layers as well!

Keep on!
