What is it about monochrome? It seems more definitive. It seems to focus the attention. I'm using it more and more in pics.

I love that picture. It looks similar to the coastline that I go to which I seemingly own and is all mine for the taking as there are never people about.

As a freelance photographer I always find that Black and White photos seem to have more "ooomph" - and as James notes, "it seems more definitive"

I use B&W a lot in North Devon because its hills and coastline have a rugged beauty to them whereas South Devon is more picturesque. But that shot really is worthy of contacting postcard printers who I am sure would pay to use it.

This shot truly resonates with me. Reminds me of the best times I have, those I spend out with The Tonka Unit photographing the world.

That's when life is easy. Or simple at least.

A difficult photo to take, lightwise, but I think you managed it well. And then the composition and the story are nice too. :)
